Temple

Stop.
Wait.
I hesitate. This could be true or nothing real at all
i climbed the gates and took the plunge
missed a a curve and shot down a wing
let them all take themselves alive

Well, you know how your body is a temple?
well this body is going mental
seize the day in square one
my name is Starla now lets have some fun

dark night bright star sky
hit me up with a truth baby no lies
i wear this heart on my sleeve again and again
you cant tell me what to think when i pretend

you know your body is a temple
that's a pretty bad example
stand up straight- who do you want to be?
no dead star fishing in the sea

I'll say one more and then its goodbye
i kiss the eyes cos they never lie
tell me what to think next time
'cos i cant stand another rhyme

the truth baby,
no lies
the truth baby
its time.

It wasn't really written as a song but i tend to write that way.. a lot of my work comes out as lyrics :] i guess it's a good thing!

Was this originally written as a song? It is very rhythmic - the tune writes itself as you read.

I adore this! I don't really know what to think but it brings such beautiful pictures to my mind. I think I'm going to reread this a few times. Wonderful job.
