Give me the wind

I realize how different this is.

How alone I am... 

  not lonely, but surely, alone.

The longer I swallow my own identity,

  the more I feel like no one can ever be "right."

The more grounded I am,

  the harder it is to be swept off my feet.

Also, opening up my heart --

  opening up my life --

  letting someone in,

  knowing someone deeply,

  I'm damn scared.
Somehow that scares me now
  more than it ever has before.

Give me the wind instead,

  the open roads...
