she took me by surprise,
some people are charming and found in the most unlikely places.

“loneliness adds beauty to life. it puts a special burn on sunsets and makes night air smell better.”
- henry rollins

i'll travel back to my parents so i can spend hours staring into the stars.

second-guessing

there are so so many draft messages
saved to my cellphone,
my email.

i wish i had the guts to say what i want to say.

tu es belle, mon chou

so much
so much

i will never, ever, ever forget you.

marionette girl

spin, spin
in the light and the dark
the merry-go-round keeps running

neon brimming from the tiny gems
night begins in the little town
the caravan amongst the smell of alcohol and the jeering
i'm dancing again today

since i don't have much redeeming value
i was covered up by the other dancers
but one day i noticed
that there was a glance cast on me

spin, spin
in the light and the dark
the merry-go-round doesn't stop running

spin, spin
having slipped into the throng
you saved me from the world

after seeing me every day
you threw me a single rose
putting up with your hunger
you gave what little bread money you had

i am a marionette with a mouth that doesn't speak
i cannot convey things with words
but the emotion that boils inside this chest
it seems to scorch your eyes

spin, spin
in the sneering laughter
i search for but a single speck of light

spin, spin
the flowering of joy
you guided me to it in this world

on this night when the crescent moon smiles eerily
you sadly confessed your setting-off
as if you can see it from far away
i take the final, final stage...

spin, spin
engulfed in flame
look at me, burning in the deep red

spin, spin
in the rain of roses
look at me, dancing the prettiest of all

spin, spin
in the light and the dark
the merry-go-round doesn't stop it's run

spin, spin
having slipped into the throng
you saved me from the world

i will keep on dancing
until this body turns to ash.

and no group of people, is as important as a single person.

there's no them that's more important than a you.

five thirty this morning

oh....wow
