CHARMING STRANGERS I Offical Poetry  



Wistful,  cheerless, 

used  to  be  brave,   

and  fearless.  


Liars,  haters  

have  been  walking,   

around  me  these  days.


Charming,  well  educated,  

that's  who  you  showed  to  me  

before  you  shot  me 


I  thought  you 

were  charming.


I  thought  you 

were  well  educated. 


I  thought  you

 needed  me.


It's  all  gone 

when  you  left  me.


I  was  just  looking 

for  some  friends,  

Now;  I'm  only  looking

for the  real  ones.


Couldn't  realize  which 

ones  were  fake  before,  

When  did  hellos  start 

to  be  called  as  goodbyes,  

After  some  while,  I 

know  which  ones  are.  


Couldn't  stand  to  this 

anymore,  faded,  

Feeling  so  alone  in 

this  crowded  room,  

Can't  love  like  this, 

it  has  exceeded,  

Feeling  like  I've 

overdosed.  Wasted.


Every  colour  was  taking 

me  back  to  you,  

Every  mark  was  pushing 

me  away  from  you.  


Spring  hasn't  begun  yet. 

It  was  not  warm  at  all.


Just  cold  with  sadness,  

darkness  with  secrets,   

strangers  with  lies.  


Charming  strangers 

are  everywhere.  


They've  been  around 

for  centuries.


They  look  like 

Venus  or  Mars,  


inside  they're 

like  black  holes. 


Pluto  who  I've 

always  been.  


An  outsider?    


no,  no,  no  


A  fighter.
