Good Riddance
take this paper and draw me a cute tree on top of a hill. and two stick men, with a basket of apples, and a stack of pancakes beside a jar of honey, and two bottles of milk. if you can't, then draw it in your mind.ZA
Artificial Hope
That warm Saturday morning when I saw you being basked by the mid summer sun ray — you were barefooted, in your wide neck tank top and a floral board short, your hair was golden, glistened by the unforgiving bright sunlight — I knew that my artificial dream had almost came true.
Except that you never knew who I was, you never knew that I was seeing my dream materialized like riding on a ferris wheel — circling the horizon, up and down, the feel of being on top of the world, the soft silky gush of breeze that touched your face — gazing from afar.
You wouldn’t know. Because I didn't have balls to tell you that I wanted you. Not that I had balls in the first place (literally!), but if I did, I would. Because my jaw locked up like a constantly-smiling clown at a cheap fun fair.
And now you’re gone.
With that girl.
Who stole my dream.
On the mid summer morning.
