Possessed (pt. 2): Separation
You.
You think you want me outta your life?
We both know that's a lie.
Sure I'll give some space to fly.
But without me long, you die.
This is our complicated relationship. Face it.
Hate me now. Love me later. This is you.
Think you want me to get lost?
Your aren't willing to pay the cost.
For you will be like a ship tempest tossed
Until I sink you to the depths of the sea.
Lost and forgotten will be you
In the darkness of your watery grave.
No one will be there to save.
The only road to safety will I pave.
Yes, I only tell you lies
But the one who cannot take the truth is you.
-Your Demon

I am just a girl living in St. Paul, Minnesota who loves to write. I think too much and I dream big. I welcome adventure with open arms and my imagination kidnaps reality. I love experiencing new things and daring to learn. Music is the rhythm of my heartbeat and lyrics are the language of my soul. I love the musty smell of old books and anything vintage-inspired. I am bohemian at heart and art is the treasure of my life's voyage. I love to feel the kisses of the winds of nature, and dwelling in the secret place of peace with my Creator. Love is my destiny and passing it on to whomever I cross paths with.
