Someone stole my color And threw it to the wind Scattered like ashes I don’t know if I’ll ever find it Someone stole my color From the face I know so well I saw it in the cotton candy clouds And the teal ocean swell Someone stole my color I guess that’s where it went The world looks so much brighter Like something heaven-sent Someone stole my color And that’s what no one knows Depression isn’t black It’s the color of a rose It’s the light orange in a sunset And the yellow of a peach Light blue, my favorite color So simply out of reach Purple like my favorite eyeshadow No, lavender, I’d guess you’d say And my favorite music artist Although he has passed away Someone stole my color Now everything’s too bright I suppose sometimes darkness Isn’t the opposite of light Someone stole my color So I’ll wear grey and black As if in mourning Until I get it back

Someone stole my color
- Qui aimes-tu le mieux, homme énigmatique, dis ? Ton père, ta mère, ta soeur ou ton frère ? - Je n'ai ni père, ni mère, ni soeur, ni frère. - Tes amis ? - Vous vous servez là d'une parole dont le sens m'est resté jusqu'à ce jour inconnu. - Ta patrie ? - J'ignore sous quelle latitude elle est située. - La beauté ? - Je l'aimerais volontiers, déesse et immortelle. - L'or ? - Je le hais comme vous haïssez Dieu. - Eh ! qu'aimes-tu donc, extraordinaire étranger ? - J'aime les nuages... les nuages qui passent... là-bas... là-bas... les merveilleux nuages !

L'étranger
Do not weep for me, For I no longer weep In anticipation of you. Long gone are the days that I stooped to conquer, or Be conquered by you. I would come. We would see. You would conquer. So do not weep for me, As I won't weep for you. You've never weeped for me, So I will stop so for you.

The waitress shuffles from table to table like a reluctant time traveller. A crumpled napkin. Straws. A name badge with a coffee stain.

My demons howling at the door, are desperate to get inside. I debate for but a moment, and then fling it open wide. Better to brace myself for impact, than to run and try to hide...
