I've found you
In glimpses that you hide
The raw, the glitter
The tears, the sighs

I have met you
The truth in your eyes
Fluttering like a bird
Missing the sky

And I've seen you
In colors,
in more
than just grey

Caged beyond a wall
In fear
That you'd
Break

But why hide, love
Why not let it be seen?
It's a Shame to hide so much wonder
When you could be so free

And I am curious
pulled into you
right
As I speak

Pulled into
the wonder that
You
seem like to me
