Some may find me old-fashioned
But I disagree
I don't prefer the heartless, cruel, or bittersweet
If that makes me stiff, oh why do I bother?
I'd show you what love is, but you've already lost it
Paper pages are always so comforting
No judgement, no bias
Just happy to see a human face
Always willing to whisk you away

For once you have control of where life takes you
Whether back to the past, future, or the Neverland of imagination
Some time away from reality in a comforting place
A best friend you'll have, a love retained
If silence is the loudest scream
Why are we always left till when Death
Decides to claim it as an invitation?
Remember me fondly
Hold me tightly
Kiss me slowly
Love me always
The dove is the peacekeeper
Between the owl and the hawk
Who have different war paths
And ominous thoughts

The hawk is the Ares
Of all the Greek gods
He's an all-business type
With straight, commanding thoughts

The owl is the Athena
The wisest of them all
She rules with the mind
With inspiring, provoking thoughts

Three different types
Three different paths
Three different thoughts
but show that somehow they can all get along
If all the worlds a stage
And we're mere players
I don't wanna play this game
With rewards so insincere

Deer in the headlights phase
You love to make me center stage
pulling my strings so harshly
The tragedy is terribly clear
