The Academy

What I am is a different breed,
but what I have are some simple needs.
I’m working hard at who I want to be
in the café writing lines is where you’ll find me, find me.
I swear to God that that wasn’t me,
I took her glasses off so now I see.
In my cerebral garden planting seeds
while running up the hill is where you’ll find me, find me.
Cold rain has changed my energy,
and I’ll embrace it ‘til it sets me free.
I laugh the loudest when it’s time to bleed
and in the mirror looking back is where you’ll find me, find me.
Atop the hill sits my academy,
and who I meet there is my enemy.
Though as it turns out he’s a lot like me
finding time to love myself is where you’ll find me, find me.
