by Nicole Ribera-Ergueta You’re half of me
Or am I half of you I’m not you’re whole If I were I’d be a monster Stomping through the dark, scaring other children You didn’t scare me But you scared my blood The blood I share, the blood that I’ve known my whole life Is it possible to be angry and scared What do we share Will I ever be able to let go of a glass Will pain surge up my fist when my knuckles hit a wall Will I haunt other children like me Will the wall actually be a person Someone I love Do you love My blood expands all around the globe It spreads from my roots and back When it comes back it’s dirtier, darker Is that what meeting you would be like The other half of me The lost half I dream that my impressions are wrong I wish that you’re sunshine, what I believe I’m made of I hope that you do love Because I love And dig into my heart to see if forgiveness was an ingredient If I let you in Would you be the same If I found you Would you still be the lost one
