Lovers

Jason Thompson

Help me live
This life more fully

So I can feel more true,
More real, and wholly

I feel like I’m falling,
Falling very behind

Because I’m the only one
Who says how they feel inside

People hide in fear
They hide in the dark

They’re too afraid to embrace
Their unique spark

The uniqueness of people
Is what brings out their beauty

And you know I love to be real,
If you claim to truly know me

I don’t like fraud,
Nothing about life’s lies

I love people who speak to me
Who look me right in my eyes

And tell me the truth
Because they love me so

Because the truth can save
This, everyone should know
