Buoy (Interlude)
Beate Slettevoll Lech
Turn around
Don't open your eyes
I'm not ready
I need to touch up
patch up
You say you love me as I am
But what I am is composite
I don't want you to see the me I am right now
I don't want you to see me damaged
I don't wanna dirty the impression
The vision
Involving you in my screw up
An associated fuck up
I wanna show you the lucky me
To make you wanna walk by my sunny side and feel lucky too - free
Proud and happy
And finally
I will be able to love - me
and you
And gradually
I might reveal another piece of me
The truth I show you
is not a lie
it's a partial truth
it's a chosen truth
to survive
