Ice creams melting.
Day dreamers before they wake.
Do you know what it feels like,
To have loved,
And lost,
And to know,
Not your mistake?
Feels like
Fresh apples growing
Knowing not the scent
Of their rot.
Or like
That strange sad feeling
Of perfection, not a looming blemish
Not a tiny little speck
Not even a single spot.
It goes without saying
That the Sun will rise
And the Sun soon shall fall.
But the Sun's always there
To forever watch us all.
Yet, just, I can't help but feel,
Inevitable---
Since ice creams,
No matter how delicious
Will sooner or later melt
If we take too long to savor.
And daydreamers,
No matter what they seek
Must always have their wake
Without resolving their endeavor.
Do you know what it's like
To fight the undefeatable?
For is it truly better
To have loved
Then lost,
Than to accept the inevitable?

Ice creams melting.
Day dreamers before they wake.
Do you know what it feels like,
To have loved,
And lost,
And to know,
Not your mistake?
Feels like
Fresh apples growing
Knowing not the scent
Of their rot.
Or like
That strange sad feeling
Of perfection, not a looming blemish
Not a tiny little speck
Not even a single spot.
It goes without saying
That the Sun will rise
And the Sun soon shall fall.
But the Sun's always there
To forever watch us all.
Yet, just, I can't help but feel,
Inevitable---
Since ice creams,
No matter how delicious
Will sooner or later melt
If we take too long to savor.
And daydreamers,
No matter what they seek
Must always have their wake
Without resolving their endeavor.
Do you know what it's like
To fight the undefeatable?
For is it truly better
To have loved
Then lost,
Than to accept the inevitable?
