“I know someday you'll have a beautiful life.
I know you'll be the sun, in somebody else's sky, 
but why, why, why can't be ohhh can't be mine, ohhh why?”

A love has been lost and destroyed

(scoured from dregs of me muss held head)

I shore up a vignette to free 
my ("FAKE") grandfather Hymie,
whose scrunched countenanced 
evinced beetle that of browed monkey

enforced non verbal body language

Why am I so quirky when it comes to my daily routine?
for I always thought these things could go unforeseen.
