~Words~

twinkle, twinkle
little star
so I can
know where
you are
gleaming, luminous
like sky snow

the ring
lost it's
shine tarnished,
rose deception
as you
get older,
you think
relationships will
get easier
but they won't
just more
doubt and
insecurity
because you
know more words

just a
game of
who will
cry first
but I'll
still help
your burdens

nice stay
there's a
great breeze
a crisp
sweetness in
the air
fades too soon
uncommonly good
but changing
