&lt;p&gt;the quilt too thick to spring back up&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the whirlwinds beakoning me to spread my joy&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but I can’t because I am asleep&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a thin white coating upon my petals&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;dim reminder of what pink used to be&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;too scared to open up, afraid to be frozen again&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;everyone around me is praying I’ll bloom&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and let the sunshine in&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;but I can’t in such a sinister and cold world&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;You’ve bleed out all your joy&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Watch the people fade away&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Never realize you pushed them&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;When you pulled them closer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Broken glass is your eyes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Distorted pictures&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;When you look in the mirror&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;7 years of bad luck&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;For shattering your views&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Tears of forgotten laughter&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Tears of pain&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;No longer tell the difference&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Your heart is lacking sunshine&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Too much rain has fallen&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;You see in colours&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;That paint a world in your mind&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Where you go to everyday&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But you can never really be there&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I stand there with an open hand&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Hope to help your lonely heart&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Because I was shattered too&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And I was all alone&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14078175876</link><guid>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14078175876</guid><pubDate>Sun, 11 Dec 2011 14:55:01 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>My Answer</title><description>&lt;p&gt;(2011)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;!-- more --&gt; &lt;span&gt;You extend that hand of yours&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Towards me, that’s what you’ve done&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But it’s empty&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;You know it’s closed&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The hand that used to shape me&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;It’s been closed since you could no longer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;False sense of longing&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;You may think remorse consumes you&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;You can pretend I left a hole&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;That I ever held a place&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But wind whistles through the cracks&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Of the structure that was never solid&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I let the injustice go over my head&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But now the winds clearly rage&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;My hands were always gentle&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In the way you must treat the gods&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Open, gentle, innocent&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Your hand were always shaping&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I could not move past your talons&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Without bruising my weakened soul&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Caught in your fist&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;No, your hands were never open&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And now my hands are closed&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14078152987</link><guid>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14078152987</guid><pubDate>Sun, 11 Dec 2011 14:54:33 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Kiss From an Angel</title><description>&lt;p&gt;(2010)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;!-- more --&gt; &lt;span&gt;So fair is the fallen maiden&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Tears as soft as silk&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Sharp as diamonds&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;They cut her face&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;On the way down her cheeks&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;So foolish be the wanderer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Who finds her face endearing&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Who finds her saddened call&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;That of an angelic choir&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Her space in heaven&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Is surely waiting by&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Wave of the dampened handkerchief&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And together they depart&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Behind she tries to leave them&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The evils that grab her hair&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And tickle her ears with madness&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;“You must go back&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Your heart is not just&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;It is but an anchor&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Your ship can never float”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But she’s given him the angel&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And the space she held in heaven&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Yet he caresses the naked bones&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;As if her skin was pearly white&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And he kissed her one day&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Just when the night was newly born&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Sandpaper bones and handkerchiefs&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Will he hold them&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;If the anchor falls&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And the ship does sink on the fallen maiden&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14077730333</link><guid>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14077730333</guid><pubDate>Sun, 11 Dec 2011 14:46:02 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Wind</title><description>&lt;p&gt;(2010)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;!-- more --&gt; &lt;span&gt;Villain I have become&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I set the bar not long ago&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Seemed that time had grown&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;To fall apart I have no right&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;No right for peace or joy&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;For some things never die&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Even when they’re laid to rest&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Some things never drown&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Form the bottom of the ocean&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Some things never burn&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Within the middle of a fire&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;They linger deep within&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And emerge to claim your heart&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;When it’s well on its path&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;To a heavenly place&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I can never obtain the wind&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;So the sunlight is my hero&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But the wind rustles my hair&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And I’m back in the cloudy storm&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14077585067</link><guid>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14077585067</guid><pubDate>Sun, 11 Dec 2011 14:43:05 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Acid Rain</title><description>&lt;p&gt;(2010)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;!-- more --&gt; &lt;span&gt;Acid rain&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Blood can’t last forever&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;On days there’s too much bleeding&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And eventually I’ll deserve&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The eternal pain&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;They like to spin&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As I walk up the hill&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And kneel next to the well&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I send my words to help them&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They catch the sky&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Like ashes&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sends the satellites to wander&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The sky’s a fiery color&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Robotic parts are falling&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;and shine light in what you never knew could exist&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Under the surface&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Looking up for once&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To the sky that sets me free&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Summer covers like a cloak&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Over my shoulders&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On this frosty night&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Another chance to fly&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Because I’m back&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To where I’m supposed to be&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Let emotions flow&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Share a secret message&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The fear floats to the surface&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anticipation fills the air&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Like a fog that touches earth&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Waiting for that word&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That clears the sky&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And stars arrive with the sun&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The moon and clouds come out&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And I’m back on the mountain&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the meadow, in the plains&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sitting by the river&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The ocean, the lake&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The sands of the rocky shore&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So happy I could cry&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tears of joy replace tears of pain&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;My heart is crimson&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Locked in a colourful mess&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;My eyes are solemn&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Focusing on something afar&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The angels on my face&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The angels in my voice&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Fly to the heavens for now&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Leave me as commoner&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Has the holy left my soul&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In the eyes of my protector&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;His heart is in my sky&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But I brought rain into our realm&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I brought winter&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Snow that freezes spirits&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;That locks you&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In an unmovable stance&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;All because you brought the summer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Made my sun shine heat&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Instead of my weakened light&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I went to sleep warm&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Covered by the heat of my smile&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Felt close, felt safe&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;So that night I cried&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And I shoved it away&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Pieces of silver magic&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Into the lilac river it was formed&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And we walk into autumn&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Watch the crimson leaves depart&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Locked in their colourful mes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14076685101</link><guid>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14076685101</guid><pubDate>Sun, 11 Dec 2011 14:24:50 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Safe Haven</title><description>&lt;p&gt;(2010)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;!-- more --&gt; &lt;span&gt;Seven minutes of your time&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I want to sleep&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Want to close my eyes till next week&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Fall away into a secret space&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;That lies within a hidden line&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;A small set back of time&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The moment the world stopped for me&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Has gone and I am empty&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In my safe haven&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;It was my dream alive&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Soft in the harshness of that day&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Weak, I will fall to my knees&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And cling to that sense of home&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I hide from the world for my safety&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Ripped away when I am happy&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Brought back when I’m in tears&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Seven minutes my heart feels better&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Twenty-three hours I wait&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I crawl, I try to go back&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But all I do is walk backwards, ahead&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I fade into those precious hours&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In the sacred corners of my mind&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Feels best when I sleep&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I want to sleep&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Yet my silence angers you&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;To the core of where you stand&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;For I am below the sightlines&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Shake off the misery&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;As you hold it down upon me&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I try but I am engulfed in the madness&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Trust has left me alone with doubt&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;It may not be your fault&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But it is you who is the reason&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Standing alone I cover my virtues&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And banish the reason&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;That used to keep me alive&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Without it I can’t be harmed&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;For they choose to see me transparent&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;When I am not connected to your hand&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Now I have lost my ally&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And now I’m nothing but the drifting wind &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14037724596</link><guid>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14037724596</guid><pubDate>Sat, 10 Dec 2011 18:54:56 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>The End of March</title><description>&lt;p&gt;(2011)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;!-- more --&gt; Anticipate the glorious horizon&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Dreams that rain on the night&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The ground is turning back to green&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The smell of the moment my life began&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Shed my fur and grew those feathers&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We’ll be ok&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Because we share this place &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14037633242</link><guid>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14037633242</guid><pubDate>Sat, 10 Dec 2011 18:52:52 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>I Am No Bird</title><description>&lt;p&gt;(2011)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;!-- more --&gt; Cliff’s edge, falling feathers&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;From my outstretched wings&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Like leaves, twist to the ground&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Like leaves off a mighty tree&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Angel, bird, we are none of those&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am not of greatness&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am not a holy being&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And you were not god whispering to me&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We grow to reach the sky&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We grow at the edge of cliffs&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Our roots will keep us from falling&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;You may bring your axe and hack away&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;For I am no bird, I can’t fly away&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I don’t need a house. That can be broken too&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;My roots will hold me in&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;My wings will help me reach&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Dust blinds the sky&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;As you rub your feet in the sand&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The sky laughs at you&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Rain falls as you write in the dirt&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Washing you away&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Feathers wrap me up&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am no bird. But I can still fly away &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14037542433</link><guid>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14037542433</guid><pubDate>Sat, 10 Dec 2011 18:50:48 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Flip a Coin</title><description>&lt;p&gt;(2011)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;!-- more --&gt; From the bottom of a wishing well&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I crossed the line, broke a barrier&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Tumbling down came quite a brick wall,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Bludgeons to the icy calm&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Like secrets to the untrained ear&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;They broke away, they fell apart&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Onlookers ooed and ahed&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;What a magnificent feat!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And all the kings and queens did sing&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;At their welcoming feast,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;They did rejoice!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Then came the wreaking ball&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Tattered ruins became the shops&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I remember it well, the ones that sold satin&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And the sweet shops I used to wander&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But that’s what happens when they flip a coin!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And you don’t have a say in heads or tails&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Oh, never did I think he would flip&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Like those coins you use to make decisions&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The ones you throw in wishing wells&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I became a wish tossed in the water&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And I was stuck there&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Gazing at the mass destruction&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;O, but as I was saying things do flip&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;And instead of a wish, like a shooting star&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I became a meteor plummeting down&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Onto a fine city like the one we built &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14037476298</link><guid>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14037476298</guid><pubDate>Sat, 10 Dec 2011 18:49:16 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Night Faeries and my Minute Friend</title><description>&lt;p&gt;(2011)&lt;br/&gt;&lt;!-- more --&gt; Well our time, it came&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Maybe a few months late&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;But suddenly my minute friend&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;O the fairies did seem to fly&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Around my face&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;O what soft wings&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Shudder silver down my soul&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;As I realized my minute&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Was truly our hour&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The magic dust falling upon this day&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Reflecting the moment&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Our paths did cross&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;O the lord or whoever&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Decides these momentous occasions&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;You thank him as well&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I’m not praying at an invisible alter&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;As we approach the day&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;That ends our year &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14037435976</link><guid>http://theseforgottennotes.tumblr.com/post/14037435976</guid><pubDate>Sat, 10 Dec 2011 18:48:21 -0500</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
