Dorothy in the Weeds

Home, I clicked
But the red shoes were gone
Dancing down the yellow brick road
I followed my heart, though my head said nay and my courage was gone through my toes.
Haystack hair
And crows that scare
And a brain that has run for the trees.
Tin tin, let me in
To your heart
I hate the disjoint 
Ease up my friend
Moving on takes guts
Roar if you need 
Purr if you can
And pounce on every chance
Love your way to the end of the road
And marvel
In wonder
At the fact you get to start again.
Head west my pretty.
That way lies dissolution.
Monkey around
Until you get found
In a castle set by the sea.
Water is friend
Licence to bend
Just so you can finally be free.
But obligation calls
Regardless
Deception unveiled
Reality shared
It’s all just a lot of hot air 

Close your eyes
Click your heels
And remember who makes a place home.

Chance Dance

We chanced, we danced, but it was a lie.

Hell, who am I kidding.

It was chances, romances and I let all of them die.
