Some things you can't be honest about

The ones you cannot uncomplicate

Because if you breathe out the desired truth

It's bound to slip away

Here we bear the confusion

The unnecessary complexity

Vacillating between two ends

Perturbed but persistently

Poisoned by romance

Some things we cannot accept

We believe with a mad hope, to a fault,

In all things dead

Lone feathers floating in an upward drift

Dreaming against our realities

A quiet demur, a sighful smile

A whispered 'no' to inevitability
