The Other Times
The other times when I feel sad
I curled myself up in my bed
Tomorrow will come
A new day will arrive
And all that yesterday will be forgotten
The other times when I'm slightly happy
I would walk slowly
Pinch me because I want it to be real
Pinch me because I'm not grateful
Everything will end and this is just temporary
I read books and paint the canvas to make myself busy
Pretending that I'm having a good time
Closed my eyes, slowly the fear crept up to me
The canvas is all black
And the books are read and I don't remember a thing
Tea with friends feels so surreal now
Conversations turns cold
Affections died
Sometimes, I would wish that I am just at home
And make myself a hot chocolate just to stay warm
Alone
