Dance like a bee.
Read in the library.
Drink tea.
Sleep under a tree.
Be a fairy.
Watch the sea.
Marry Mary.
And do whatever makes you merry.

*But please don't tell Cherry.
Darling, thank you.
Your love had made me
                sane.
But please forgive me
for sanity had never been
my
       favorite
                       cup
                               of
                                    tea.
Love
is just a passing summer day,
euphoric
but was never meant to stay.
Hope turns to desperation.
    You waste your pennies and wishes
    on a well gone dry.
You loved me when
   I was loved by everyone else

but when I was lonely,

*you only made me lonelier.
For every shade
     of green you see
For every wave
       you catch in the sea

*I hope you remember me.
She is the brightest star
        in the night sky.
But in the morning,
        when the sun comes,
            
              *she is nothing.
