baby babe babe

something is wrong with us
we can't be in between hot or cold
we freeze
but we still can't stand the heat
we'd rather sit there, shivering, than risk burning ourselves
or someone else
it's easier to turn your back to the flames
than to stand in the fire
turn back to what you know and the safety of it all
cause its too hard to know whether or not it is worth the gamble

metaphors are so much more romantic, though
even just words are more romantic
but what i'm looking for is power
power in actions versus speech
i'm not looking for this in just anyone
i'm looking for this in you
as i continue the great search for myself
