i am who i am / but if time erases that / these words shall remain / / -souxie lily
i know he knows the shortcuts and every corner in my heart i know he knows how to follow through but even gypsies wish to be courted and if in one drunken moment we share a passion then may the guitar and piano notes flow straight through me and may we always remember this singular precious moment drinking milky tea under stars that are aligned but should not be

even gypsies
for one so small as i the price was much too high the heart still beats an inconsistent time and falls short to ridiculous rhyme

for one so small
perhaps we are unlikely heroes but at least we are heroes like a rabbit in a cage no like a bird with broken wings i lack no conviction oh but that i could fly be as blue as the great beyond sing a song that leaves all who hear it weeping for love is happily

houdini
you are to me an entirely new world yes you see but a safari world and you my wild thing so let us draw near and i know you could teach me a thing or two the way nature can choose to do but we're too close and it's hard to breathe i wish sometimes i could disappear into the way you run like you don't even know if you don't look back i'd never know i'm just trying hard to it let go

yes you see
we find each other when we're looking when we least expect to know i see myself in you and you see in me what you will when we're disappointed we forget but hold me close and we'll remember for the sun is not up long and the night that much longer when the rest is left to the great unknown

beauty is not unwild is not quite tame or mediocre but beauty for God's sake is not rare

beauty
behind thick curtains drinking hot tea leaving swirling trails of smoke and carefully combed hair benignly denying the fact that behind his beard behind her glasses is love and only love

tea and such
we shall dance and not be too tired for we have loved for years and will no longer deny this but if that mustache is indicative of anything we shall spill the liquor and forget ourselves momentarily for we are artists with beautiful artistic hands and beautiful artistic eyes that see putting together pieces of ourselves and fitting them into each other to see things in a whole new light and even if we eat from garbage cans and never have clean water to wash our hands we have our skin who has seen us through seeing through each other

artists
something about this wild girl scares me in her eyes i cannot see anything that even remotely reminds me of me and the mirror is quite smooth reflective indeed but this jacket and sulky pout cannot possibly be suiting me her curly head of curls must equally be filled with dreams but i shall never know what she hopes for me quite silent is she (so silent and yet free) but if she says not even a thing then i suppose i shall have to let her be
