Dinner time

Hats for Sale

Don't be pathetic

I am not so sure. 
These characters that I play become entangled into one.

I wear these glasses to cover up my eyes. 
I wear the other kind so I am not blind.

Who says this is how you're supposed to be? 
Why are we victimized by society?

No one is impressed. 
No one cares how you dress. 
No one knows that your life is a mess.

But you. You are the only one who defines just the way you are.

Yet, we are here to show the world just who we are. 

Oh, but we silly creatures.. we take ourselves so seriously.

Fools, how we are when life is just a game. 

Come find me with my silly little scarf. I can wear it so well.

I can wear many faces if I so choose 
Because I have decided I can be whomever.

If I am silly enough to believe myself in all my seriousness, 

Then I am silly enough to play the game. I dress up for me. 

And it is you that cares. Because you are just as silly. 

So don't be pathetic, quit lying to yourself.

You have no idea where you are going, just like the rest of us.

Let us then, simply enjoy our own stupidity together. 

Our own stupid, serious, silly little game of dress up and chase the rainbow.

We can only go as far as then, now and tomorrow. 

A tribute to Spring

My how wonderful you are

Bringing back the blossoms

Filling my ears with musical melodies from the sky

Melting the snow

Breathing in the high of Life

We once lay so dormant

I can't describe this stir I feel

Even though I am in a place

where Summer remains

And the months mold into one another

I close my eyes and you surround me

The coolness of your breath

The freshness of the air you bring

It's quite lovely

I'm so lucky to know this feeling

And even though it's beautiful here for so many reasons

I really, truly miss the changing of seasons

I miss you my dear

But kiss those near to you

Allow them to appreciate your touch

Allow them to bathe in your embrace

But save some, please

For me

Because I will return to you

Because I will never forget you

My dear Spring

How I miss you.

If I were in love, I would fuck it up

Don't let the dress fool you

I don't love you less

Just because my heart is in my throat

And my thoughts are a mess

I try to do good things for us

But most days I get confused

I refuse to believe

You're gone for good

But then again, maybe you should

 As the colours switch to shades of grey

I realize my mistake

I never wanted it this way

But that was the chance I had to take

I love you darling

Can you feel my love across the seas?

Maybe one day the wind will blow

And bring you back to me.
