When I fear there's nothing left in here (points to her head) I circle the room I roam I become a pacing lion in a cage (points toward direction of the zoo) I swipe my hand upward (sweeps up those long bangs) I get in tune with the habbit When I fear there's gotta be nothing to give I smile and show my long, Sharp teeth in the mirror (runs her tongue over them) I sit back down There's something flickering in here (points to her heart) (begins to write) Gather ye rosebuds while ye may, Old time is still a-flying, And this same flower that smiles today To-morrow will be dying. -Robert Herrick |
