Tinted Glass - Sonya Kitchell

Tinted Glass - Sonya Kitchell
I cannot explain
Why I am this way
Precaution please leave me alone
I＇m tired of hearing what you＇ve got to say
Sometimes I like it
Sometimes I don＇t
But it seems I always want to be what I＇m not
And I＇m not satisfied with what I＇ve got
I＇m looking through a tinted glass
That changes color with each question that I ask
Part of me is new and part of me is old
I＇m running fast but can I hold
Onto this dream that grows at such a speed
I don＇t know what I want or what I need
I cannot explain
For I do not know
Confusion is planted in my mind
And the seed continues to grow
Sometimes I like it
Most times I don＇t
The more I know the more I ask
Will I find answers or is this my task
Will a day arrive when I am sure of something
The unobtainable intrigues me
Greener grass I can see
When my vision is obscured by desire
Sometimes I must
Look deeper than the waters brim
Take a deep breath
Before I dive in
Take a deep breath
Before I try to swim
Take a deep breath
Take a deep breath
