stuff changes. its funny what a winter break can do.
like in relationships. like we broke up. and now we're better than we've ever been, and it feels so small, but in those moments it was monumental.

ode to the new
things aren't always as they seem.
a nightmare could be just a dream.
instead of whisper, let you scream
and from your eyes let fall a stream.
know your soul has endless range
and know when it's simply time to change
it could be hunger or just greed
but don't deny it's what you need
don't be afraid to just let go.
it's okay to just not know
you can wander to and fro
just remember you run your show.
never words could steal the truth
their meaning caught in a photo booth
the pictures show their every whim
to every her and every him
i can still see it in your eyes,
but always your mouth the truth defies
you can still wear your disguise
just don't get caught up in your lies
hell shall never know a fury
like woman's scorn or mother's worry
although such things may seem remiss
count on that star to make your wish
so here is my ode to the new
for every me and every you
so you can turn your grey skies blue
and to erase your tears to few
so one day soon or far away
please remember me that day
and remember that i said you will
you will laugh and you can feel
i told someone i'd try
i don't know what i'm going to do though
i need something to distract me from the pain inside
and so are you. what a coincidence.
i did what i don't do but now i do cos i did it
