Never too much
I get called too much
I got a hunch
I will never be met
With the depths I seek
They all say it isn't that deep
But the depths always seem to sneak in the cracks
It is that deep
You're just scared to go there
Or maybe you just dont care
…
Some think I'm crazy
But at the same time my past is hazy
I lived like a crazy man
Nothing to live for
So the least i deserve
Is to live free
To love as deep as I can
Be as much as I am
…
Sometimes loving this deeply feels like a mistake
In a world so full of the fake
The performative
Those that refuse to be reformitive
Of their deformities
It is what it is
…
But honestly
It is pretty shit to not work on yourself
Change is hell
Makes you want to ring the bell
But same with being stuck
Keep spinning your wheels
Getting high centered
Or start digging and working for better
…
It isn't a mistake
I couldn't be fake
Nobody knows how much work it takes
To be this calm
How much damage it took
To care
In a world completely unfair.
I am who I am too
But at least im working on my flaws
Clenching my jaw
Becoming the best man
Working on every flaw
…
I was never too much
Has the sunset ever been called too pretty?
The forest too vast?
I refuse to be belittled because of my past
Or the future I build
I will die on this hill
At least then I'll be dead
…
I was never too much
Never too broken
I'm just open
To all the possibilities in front of me
And I refuse to live
Anything but free
Refuse to be anyone but me
…



I wasn't ready for...the bell... All this defending himself, never too much, never too broken, I am who I am..? And then right in the middle he lets it slip that some mornings he wants to tap out entirely, and puts it back down and keeps arguing anyway. I believe the wanting-out more than I believe the hill he says he'll die on, and I think he'd rather I didn't. Keep working the flaws, Elijah. The calm costs what it costs and I'm not going to tell you it doesn't.
With the qualities you possess, Elijah…..you will never be too much. You can never have too much of a GOOD thing. Remember that!!💕😊
