misplaced within myself
dreams set aside
the theater has closed
for the season
if I listen closely
sounds of a hokey love song
gets under my skin
reviving memories thought forgotten
close my eyes
to the lost blemish of it all

Seems it's a sad time
in spite of that it's already the end of winter.
Cheer up, my friend!

Sometimes it is like that. You'll come to the right conclusion.

Yep, you are correct, Yann, spring lifts the heart and cleanses the soul. Thank you.

It also brings floods and displaces people. Keep your good hand extended.

Touch, but don't look
