You can’t see what it really is
From the middle
Because you can’t perceive
What it actually might be
Until you’ve seen it before
And have a frame of reference 
So I know about settling and being free
I know loneliness and happiness and peace
I know longing and desperation
Confidence and passion
And fear and I are friends
But you can’t think that’s a ship
If ships don’t exist in your world 
It’s just weight on the wind
I know boyfriends and enemies and kin 
He calls it love but I call it lust
Because he’s a novice and I a veteran
Neither of us are visionaries
Until it ends
Just explorers telling stories
Therefore if we don’t let it-
What then- Is he right for once or I again?
