**Gone was my beloved muse, the puppet I tried to play, and the one I tried to love. But love is not love when you’re loving an image not the person. I am, at bottom, an obsessive spoiled brat, who believed every color, every word, every coincidence, to be a symbol that we were meant to be. I told myself I was letting go of my inhibitions, but why did I find myself contorting my identity, just so ...

Hello, Mr. Reaper!
Are you here for me?
I’m all ready to go- I do decree!
Packed all I need
For this dismal trip
Wherever we may end
On this inter-dimensional starship
I’ll gladly amend,
All the wrongs I’ve done
And all the good ones too!
So long as I can come along
And be at peace in the airy song
Of wind whipped to and fro
As we fly off this planet
to somewhere new
And maybe not ...
Little girl
You, in that crazy mind
Rest your head
And peace you will soon find
Pause the action
The bubbling in that head
Why don’t we focus on sleep
instead?
**[chorus]**
You are worthy
Of all things right
You don’t deserve to
Fall asleep to angry voices
every night

Close your eyes
I know it may be scary
But trust me
Little girl, your mind is weary
All the flaming fires in your...
Little spider crawl
Across the floor to freedom
Closer to your home
Little spider dance
You will see your mama soon
Sweet and scared spider
Little spider slow
You live among the sunshine
Don’t you want to stay?
Little spider
Little spider
Crawling dancing slowing
Falling prancing going
Stalling can’t show you
The way home
Little spider
Little spider
Home is close
Just keep going
And when yo...
Your just like a bear, both brave and both strong, and courage of a warrior afar. You really are a special person, more special than all of the people by far
Like a moth to a light, you come to help around, More helpful than you might think. I would like to say more of your personality and all, but im sure that you took the hint.
So sleep high and mighty! Rest for long till day comes round. So s...
Up in a nest
A little bird peeps
Mama watches over
Her chicks as they sleep
Down on the floor
A fox kit dreams
Mama watches over
They sleep near the stream
In the mornin’
The birdie wakes up
Mama flies off
In search of some grub
The foxes wake too
Stifling their yawns
Mama walks off
To find food at dawn
Too hungry to wait
All on her own
The chick goes out
Away she’s flown
She finds the fox...
