i wish you knew,
i’m a vaultboy,
i’m a boy,
trapped in a vault,
a vault full of dreams,
dreams with no color,
but a black and white gradient,
gradients that inhabit all that I’m not.
i wish you knew,
i’m a vaultboy,
i’m a boy,
trapped in a vault,
a vault full of wonders,
wonders that aren’t black or white,
but a rainbow as far as the eye can see,
a rainbow that inhabits all that I am capable of.
i wish you knew,
i’m a vaultboy,
i’m a boy,
trapped in a vault,
a vault full of colors,
colors that dazzle like the sky,
a purple flare,
a red heart,
a pink line,
an orange sky,
and a black soul.
i wish you knew,
i’m a vaultboy,
i’m a boy,
trapped in a vault,
a vault full of fantasies,
fantasies where nothing but everything collides,
colliding into one magnificent dream,
a dream that overlaps darkness as a nova.
i wish you knew,
i’m a vaultboy,
i’m a boy,
trapped in a vault,
a vault full of nature,
natures essence of glory,
glory of a tree with wires unwinding,
into a heart so dark like an empty stage.
i wish you knew,
i’m a vaultboy,
i’m a boy,
trapped in a vault,
a vault full of destruction,
destruction of tornadoes in a glass jar,
destroying the path that was once held in by the confinement,
being confined as a whale’s stomach.
i wish you knew,
i’m a vaultboy,
i’m a boy,
trapped in a vault,
a vault full of tears,
the tears that I am,
holding onto the unspoken words,
longing to be heard and understood like a pigeon.
i wish you knew,
i’m a vaultboy,
i’m a boy,
trapped in a vault,
a vault full of light,
light that shines in the dawn of day,
a dawn so dark as the morning sky itself,
conquering every sky it tears from the ground below.
i wish you knew,
i’m a vaultboy,
i’m a boy,
trapped in a vault,
a vault full of time,
time so painful like it’s a loop,
a loop so flexible like waves,
waves that slow time to a halt, forever….
