I have
been pleading
for somebody
to come
and sing me lullabies
to help me
sleep at night

Just one night
is all I ask.

I am a master of disguise,
my mask is of pure deceit,
without flaw;
it's beauty, limitless.

I am a prince of envy,
my palace is full of treasure,
but none of these I could touch.

I am a king of desolation.
The hall is empty,
just like its ruler
that sits on a
broken throne.

I am a man,
sitting by the
broken door
of the home I could
not save.

My only companion,
is my deranged mind,
and figments of
beautiful memories.

We're two people
not stranger to love,
yet we find ourselves
chasing it uphill,
until we tire and it
gets farther, and farther
from us until we can't
see it any longer.

We're forced to
trudge the trail,
silently hoping
that we'll
find it again
because I believe
that we're two people
not stranger to love.

how i wish
to see
your eyes
looking at me
like i'm the
only one thing
in this place
that will ever
attract your gaze

How does it feel to fly?

Well, I can only imagine. But wouldn't you feel alone in the sky?

But I really think it's fun. Don't you think so, too?

I do, but wouldn't it be better to fly with someone?

With whom?

With someone you cherish.

It's a bit sappy. I don't like it.

Why not?

Just because.

You really have a weird sense of logic.

I don't need your opinion.

We shouldn't even be talking about this. We're grown-ups.

Is that so? But I really think this is a better topic than a typical topic adults talk about.

Like what?

Like politics, education, climate change, and whatnot.

But those are good topics. And you will learn a lot from them.

I know, but it's so routinary and repetitive. It's becoming a bother and
they're kind of boring.

Well, what do you want to talk about?

Something out of the ordinary.

And you think a topic about flying is "out of the ordinary?"

Yes, I do.

How so?

Well, because it is.

Why won't you give me a straight answer?

Well you see, in a conversation such as this, the answer lies on your own understanding. I can't give you an answer because I don't want to impose on you my own understanding. You have to find it on your own.

That's some deep ****.

But I'm not kidding. You see, we think of such conversations as petty or inconvenient. But by conversing with this kind of topic, we can think and imagine further. Typical adult-topics may be seen as something worth talking about, well, I don't digress, really. It's just that, what you say is very limited. It does not give you any chance to make your mind work. What you say is what you know. But the conversation we just held, made us ask, react, think freely, imagine, and moreover, it didn't restrict us. What you think of as petty and childish may be really something extraordinary.

You really are unpredictable, you know that? I didn't think you would be able to think up of such answer.

Well, I tried.

Show-off.

Well, that, I digress with.

People come and go
in a place full of
old relics and bones,
just like a place in
a person's heart,
where love is lost
and memories are
its bittersweet companion.

i remember
the sound of
your voice
like a bittersweet
melody of a nightingale
mourning for his lost love
