Changing of Seasons

everything and everyone seems to be in motion 
everyone but me 

seasons change, days turn into months,people age
but I stand still, unaffected

the only time I feel alive, the only time I thrive is when most would rather
be still 

when the cold creeps in I come alive!

Yesterday

I'm becoming the part that don't last

The part that isn't quite your past 

and certainly not your future

It is clear to everyone how much you mean to me...

...clear to everyone but you?

oh what I would do for your love

??? (wo ai ni)

Questions

today is just the start, 
yesterday is on the previous page
 but i refuse to turn back to it.

do not need reminders of all the misery 
love, life, lust 
all stories that come together 
to form the picture that is 

my life...

Body

coming of age
YOU ARE A WOMAN NOW!!

you hips grow wider, you sprout hairs in awkward places,
sacks of fat develop on your chest, every few weeks your body goes through a change a sort of spring cleaning that is not only reserved for spring...

your thoughts, hopes, dreams, aspirations 
DOES NOT MATTER! you have a specific purpose

your hips grew to accommodate the life/lives you will soon support inside you 
the sacks of fat? well to feed those lives of course

DON'T GIVE UP!
you can break the mould!
you can 'beat the system'
you are strong !

the  catch?

you remain an outcast, a weirdo...the strange one

do not worry you are not alone
though we hide in the shadows we are still there cheering you on supporting you....

Confused

confused?

misplaced love,
unrequited love 

new friends,
lost lovers 

lost lovers, 
old friends

when will this race end?
no one knows.
