~Apparition~

happiness is
just a
series of
choices it
doesn't just
happen I was
an apparition
it's not
who I
am what's
really wrong
with starting over?

tangerine instead
of orange
for a clean
slate I
like
how they
use the word
friendship it's
the cornerstone
of everything

my grandmother
preferred marigolds
for marigolds
for remembrance

do you
think you'll
find love? I
don't know
if she likes
pancakes, then yes
the innocent
before the
plunging chasm
