title.

the stars may be shining

the sun may be bright

but there's no silver lining

cause you're not in sight.

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

a dream is a dream

but when it decays

your eyes don't hold

that gleam you held for days

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

let me be free

let me fly

let me be independent

like a butterfly

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

laying in bed

thinking of you.

that's what I write,

but I'm actually thinking of food

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

i can be kind,

i can be sweet

i can be delightful

if you give me something to eat

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

a broken window

a few bricks lying around

an empty chair

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

sleep.

it doesn't seem to come to me.

why could that be?
