A dream called life

I am an empty vessel
Sell me a dream called life

Hearing you talk of colours
That you want to paint your life with
I can almost feel the rhythmic beats of my heart
That once hosted a tree for little sparrows and parrots

Questions as many as nuerons in my head
A part of me fights me
For answers are not mine to know
For I don't deserve to know, yet, Would I ever be?

I am at one arm's length away from you and the world
Would you wait till I walk this distance myself
I don't want to miss this space between us ever
Would you be this person I trust blindly
Dangerous but that's the only way I know

Would you be the one who would take on the world
Just to stand by my side, for a second or two
