note to self

tell my mother, everything's alright, you know she's prone to worry 'bout me, almost all the time, tell my heart, my old, unfaithful friend, that i will not return and he will not, see me again, tell my father, that he always said it best, "you must live within your head, and not within your chest", tell myself, remember what is real, you live by what you know is true, and not by what you feel, not what you feel, please remember what you know, and don't let go, just please come back home, remember this, you are not alone, though everything around you, is growing dark and cold, don't forget, you've been here before, don't trust your eyes now, you know that there is more, there's so much more, please remember what you know, and don't let go, just please come back home, and see what's right here for you, it's always been, the only thing that's true, stay awake when your eyes get heavy, don't lose faith when the world's unsteady now, be still and know, please remember what you know, and don't let go, just please come back home
