Shift and Resist

I feel, somehow

lost

changed

confused

not unhappy

just. . . different

please please me

I feel good

but I don't know why

and I don't know why not

I feel melancholy

like a rainy spring day

yet I'm holding on to a piece of the sun

there is a brighter tomorrow

I don't know why things have to change

so I preserve yesterday in a little blue bottle

but it doesn't always make me feel any better

so please

please me
