the chalkboard chatters
in its different languages
ancient ways
am i supposed to understand?

it’s just chalkboard chatter
- not important to me
i’m important to them

i don’t care
if you cut your hair
you’re still there
for me
aren’t you?

i don’t care
if you ruin our garden
we’re still here
for each other
aren’t we?

i don’t care
if you ruin my hair
i’ll still be there
for you
won’t i?

maybe i should care
but then again
i don’t
do i?

i thought the black
was a reflection
of his soul
i was wrong
but not really
it wasn’t a soulless black
it was the colour
of all the colours

it feels good
to hurt

my bond
to fictional characters
come from the lack
of real people

they tell me
i won’t get anywhere
if i don’t follow the rules
but honey
**** it
i want to be everywhere
