with thoughts in disguise.

I like it this way,
more merry to me,
I can think what I want,
and they just let me be.

the secret of knowing,
Your outsides within,
is the strangest of hope
you can share with your kin.

    And those that would come soon.

    She wanted to apologize,

    For wishing on the stars,
