There is a Gap that never settles. Its starts out small and gets bigger. Why though? does it start out small! Because that's how big its meant to be.
This is the Gap between Reputation and Reality.


The Gap

Every time I run into the arms of the world,
I run away from myself
I forget its demands are so high,
I can't meet them myself

Every time I try to pursue the stars,
they remind me how far they are
I forget that no star is close enough to the other,
and that I'm one myself

Every time I search my brain,
the bigger my words get and the smaller they unwind
I forget that if I search my heart
I will find passion;
for am I here to become the world,
or to be myself.
