where I stand


struggles are key to how we survive
to stand up we need to know
what falling is like

when i say i'm fine you know the truth
sitting next to me nothing gets past you
you studied my face and like my quirks
and you weren't afraid of saying it first

giving up is as useless as the P in psychic
trying to predict the worst from these feelings to hide it
i can't sleep when i think of where all of this can go
it's never been so hard for me to let this show

i drown in your eyes when you look at me
i didn't want to know how easy it could be
sometimes complications are the easy way out
until we're brave enough to say it out loud

i climb out of fear to reach the sky
energy spent well knowing i tried
i look down below just to see where i am
it's such a long way but you're where i stand



Always, Lainey
