The Proxy

by Megan Aries - Not entered

An unknown, it always
hides inside...waiting
until the good thing comes
and you mean to take it
you mean to hold it
you mean to make it yours
and you mean to say those thoughts...
then it makes the mistakes
and what you meant is meaningless
because the meaning was meant to be lost
taken away
substituted
replaced
gone

Reason for writing:

    We can't be happy all the time...
