6 minutes after sundown

this is not how
i thought it would be
you see that girl
standing in the corner
looking all melancholy
and you wonder....
who is she?

"hi, i'm sadness wrapped in my bosom
with hopelessness in my smile.
i am forgotten dreams and ambition too,
nice to meet you!"

she's tired
depends on silly sitcoms to laugh
she's breathing but only barely hanging in
she loves chocolate and long walks on the beach for miles
but recently she'd just be happy to smile...
