my melancholy tastes like bittersweet
 my heart sings to pang these days
 it's just a momentary lapse
 in reason
 i know
 and as i wait for the bluebird of happiness
 to swoop down and take me
 i bide my time with a spanish dancer
 her gait keeps me distracted
 my melancholy tastes like
 bittersweet
 as i swallow it back down
 keeping it inside of me
 safe
 close
 hidden
 gazing out the window
 waiting for something
 to happen
 my mind finds you
 through the dissonance
 and my heart draws
 a slow deep breath in
 it's your smile
 that kills...
