Shared (Better Things)

By Phalanx

I'd like us to make a memory
And share a moment.
A beautiful by-product,
Even if you decide you may not
Want to keep it.

I know you're beautiful
Although, you're lost on the idea.
I still want to keep you.

You inspire me to regrow
My skin...
Use eye drops and wash
My heart lilly white,
Come back and let myself be seen.

If nothing else, I know my place
In this slide show on the outside.
Whether it's ash or diamonds,
We all shine.

There's no shame as long as there's sorrow.
