Sad 2
By the mirror side
Oh no! I can't hide
I hate what I see
...Don't like things I feel
A twisted face,
I don't embrace
'Wish I can Chase it away
This is no "making hay"!
'Wish I could show my teeth
And broaden my cheeks
'Relax m eyebrows
And hold the waterflows
Just like my former "can't"
I still can't!
My can't's so bent
Rigidly unmoved, strongly unshooked
Oh rigid bent can't
I need a happy tent
Don't want it rent
But unrend and permanent!
Sadness, as the can't
Hapiness, as the tent
Can't wait to get the tent
But for now it's "can't"
To all who "heard"
I'm still sad!
