&&the weather this time of year is

oh so b e a u t i f u l

as you look up at his oneblueeye

give him a goodbye hug

[Of course he doesn't want you to be around him. No need to sufficate him as soon as he comes home]

And leave him basically alone in that huge, burned house.

Look at him

W a i t i n g

(today, tomorrow, and lets not forget about yestersday)

for that onetruesmile

That's been missing for justalittletoolong

.

Its that mock of a smile again.

That cruel smirk; that twisted grin; that upside-down frown;

You wonder if oneday you will wake up and not remember what his smile used to look like.

.

B u t l e r

His black butler

He also has a mocking smile.

But he doesn't mind, so justwhoareyou

To disagree with his choices?

.

Smile

He actually smiled.

.

"Lady Elizabeth" He starts

"It's Lizzy." you correct with a fond smile.

Partly because it's just habit

Somewhat because that is what you wanttobecalled

And a little because its something from your childhood that didn't change.

.

Black.

It isn't cute, it isn't stylish, it isn't even decent!

So why does he smile like your opinion means so little to him?

Even the m u s i c mocks you with that haunting tone.

.

The present

[Present? More like all your fears trapped in box completed with a bow]

slips

(falling down, falling down, falling down)

and crashes to the ground.

Somehow your desparately numb fingers held onto the deepdark black rose

And the little card, telling you everything you never wanted to know.

.

&&the weather this time of year is

oh so b e a u t i f u l

as you lean down to read the carved words

overandoverandoveragain

before shaking your head with a bittersweet smile

and leaving him all alone yet again.
