I dared to tread upon the fresh snow, to imprint my stain upon its calm. i dared to make my mark upon it, and i ruined the beauty that was created. with much toil the blanket had been lain, to cover carefully the raggedness below. the broken flowers my hands had torn, the blackened earth i left behind. i made myself open to you, somehow, my dreams were different than this. it was supposed to be easy. why is it, that i choose my demise without care? what does friend mean? what does it mean that you care? a plethora of scenarios meet my heart. in none of them i show. so is this it? friends. i will spend time mopping up the spill of my tears. another door slammed in my face.

The Merry man act 2
I dared to tread upon the fresh snow, to imprint my stain upon its calm. i dared to make my mark upon it, and i ruined the beauty that was created. with much toil the blanket had been lain, to cover carefully the raggedness below. the broken flowers my hands had torn, the blackened earth i left behind. i made myself open to you, somehow, my dreams were different than this. it was supposed to be easy. why is it, that i choose my demise without care? what does friend mean? what does it mean that you care? a plethora of scenarios meet my heart. in none of them i show. so is this it? friends. i will spend time mopping up the spill of my tears. another door slammed in my face.
