From my self made pit,
i watch the picture perfect,
walk right by,
taking pictures of happiness,
in their eye,
im so jealous,
so very jealous,
i cant crawl out,
be part of their picture,
but its too deep,
in here,
you see i fear,
the risk,
live with the regrets,
that stains,
and drains,
my power,
my pleasure,
the picture is fading,
and my pit is closing,
is it my eye,taken from time,
tell me please,
then leave me among the leaves,
where pictures breathe,
new life into me

how long does it take you to write these? You can really pop them out!

I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me."
