They say it takes years to establish a true friendship,
I have found a true friend,
Or at least I thought I had,

Once they see the invisible man,
Your true nature,
They will abandon you,
Their friendship with you,
Their trust in yopenness,
It will all disappear into the dust,

My friends have discovered the monster that is my cancer,
I have shared everything with them,
Then you have nothing left to share,

Now I am all but a memory,
A regret in the circle of friends.

The melody of the music rewards me with a melancholy muse of inspiration.
Are you living?
The rhythm of my heart beat matches the movement of hands on the piano.
Are you breathing?
Invisible tears escape the sheltered walls of my borders.
Why am I like this?
I can feel a calm coming to my soul like a mother soothing her infant.
Do you love me…

Lady said
"Shut up about the storm
else you'll be in one"
Charming, I thought

You loved me once
But I buried that in the dirt
In the junk yard behind my fence
Where forgotten things commingle with hurt
It's a perfect image of us
All along, this has been our apparent fate
You'll forever be the junk in that yard
But I refuse to be another girl living with your pain.
