Gate

Please don't ask me to open up fully
I don't exactly know what it means to
Besides experience has shown me to keep some things to myself.
It's only the songs and movies that tell us otherwise.
The same songs and movies that gave us such high expectations we rejected anything else.
I fear if I open the flood gates you will wash away... And worst, I won't even notice until I'm empty and can no longer see you near.
-
But you're already empty
The floor gates hold nothing but rocks and boulders.
You need to let them go.
Fill yourself with clean fresh water
Keep it safe, the clear water is precious in these times and all times.
Still climb mountains and dive dark sea's, you will be encouraged to
But come home or at least take a little with you.
