Your hair can’t decide to be straight or curly.
Your eyes are either luminous or dreary.
Your nose…too big.
Lips…to...

I’ll walk forward once more, towards the starry night sky, 
Dreamy eyes that have long vanished, letting them die. 
The young thing I was calls to me,
“This isn’t what I was to be.”

because he asked me too;
nothing else to...
