Nuts and Chocolate

I want to feel the calm knowing of reality

in other words
I want to look into your eyes and just be whatever it is we are
and feel how beautiful I think you are
knowing
this is not about me

I want to leave behind the nervousness of everything that didn't happen
because it was too early
everything that might happen
that I fear for a myriad of polarized causes
everything that spins my head into circles
then stops it dead from going in any direction

I want to feel the strength I've had before take over me
mastering my life
allowing room for my passion for this road of knowledge
I keep trying to choose for myself

In this place I am not free to think
where I fear past and future - thereby paralyzing the present

Basically

I am nuts
please ignore me for the time being
and just hang out with me and know and share
fortunately my nuts crack themselves over time
