Hayley's perspective

Hayley's perspective

inspired by a fictional character I created Haley Heartfire (from THE MANAGER OF THE MIND or MOTM) 

ghosts that's nothing a Haunted Mansion, not something I can feel

but who am I to say what's real

I've seen things left and right

twist and turns

all day and night

I wish all I had to do will stand up and fight

but now I still have to do what's right

Being a good guy, it sounds like a privilege

but I can't do anything

all I find myself doing is staring off into the distance while standing on a lonely bridge

and then after you see me go and stealing stuff from Bexley's fridge

I'm sick of all the drama all the lives I have to save

everyone they just want me to be brave

they say they lose all their time

what about mine

All I really wanna do is stand there and stomp my feet to the ground

I don't wanna make a stand

the truth is I want a vacation I want to rub my fingers through the sand

but I know deep down

even if it makes me frown

I meant for more

sure it might leave me sore

but it's what I'm meant to do

I meant to save you

Sometimes I wish I could save me

and be who I want to be

I just wish everyone else could see

I need a chance to save me.

What would Bexley say

probably something heroic "like I fight in the day

and I give everyone my love"

she would probably say that while being as innocent as a dove

She says she's been through tough times

but she hasn't been through anything like mine

what I've done in all of my time

It's so absurd I can't make it rhyme

We might be the same age

but we're not on the same page

I can tell her story is at its beginning and mines close to the end

I say my farewells to my dearest friend.

We love you Hayley..... well I do. And I know you can get through this.
