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

Fatin, if this is about you...I've been in the same place often. Just wanting to be alone in my sanctuary, with my own thoughts. Those feelings come and go and we get through them. I liked this one a lot.
