Once upon a delirious night, sat a girl lost and thoughtful,  A lover of Time, a killer from crime, Her thoughts reflect in her shadows so fine . The bare walls trigger, All that she hides inside,  She giggles to herself, As she strolls in those lies. As her thoughts delicately dance, And they delicately glide, She lets her joy decorate, Her simple eyes.

In the tempting silence I sense this bitterness in the air, I hear my thoughts echo, but I see them vanish like a mist in open space. Word’s floating like little feathers, “..and they lived happily ever after with a baby boy and a dog to care for” contradicting the very same “… he died of a heart attack” or maybe a bullet. No matter what, ‘the not so nice end’ stands out right in front of you. Soft and slow, pinching in deeper and stronger; like an injection inserted in through your skin, however to come out as a knife from your stomach;  ones thoughts only seem to enjoy the play. How funny one is often found mocking fairy tales; jeering at their “happily ever afters” . So easily we take no notice of the frequently used phrases like “life is a bitter truth” or “life is just unfair”. Like a pinch of salt scattered about in a vessel meant to serve food to 10 persons; tasteless is what best describes those words. How simple it may seem talking about life using two or a few adjectives to
