Paper boats sail
With little paper sailors
And their little paper hearts
They belong to a sea
Of broken blue acrylic

Paper aeroplanes fly
With little paper pilots
And their little paper courage
They belong to a sky
Of rich and dank enamel

nothing is real

Little paper people
Walk restlessly around
Some little paper town
They have no home
They don't belong

In this paper world
Where we are all
Just being eaten by
Mildew
Waiting for paper rain
To wash us all away
To wash this Paper World away

It's not a dream
It's just on paper
That's why

I have seen the stars,
I have seen the moon.

But,

In her eye I saw myself.

She,
  found me home.
  the little world around her,
  its mine now.

She,
Never for every each,
Survive the cosmic storm to
hug her close.
Oo,
  I will survive,
  I know I can.

I saw a world in her,
   her sparky eye, you should have seen,
   I saw myself.
A little arm and a little finger holding me close,
   I,
   peacefully safe with her.
A Pinky little nose, a pulpy sweet lips, a little long hair,
Ooo,
    she had everything I wanted
        She is all mine, only mine.

the elegance of truthful simplicity,
the sweet truths of elegant brevity,
the insides of insight
