Last Thing

Ephemera

The last thing I would do
Always comes first to you
Joy is a life of compromises
Sometimes hard to say
Sometimes, like today
Truth is the daddy of surprises

'Oh yes I'm doing fine'
Didn't I tell you I've surely had a better time
Your eyes still melt me down
Like a daffodil
Trampled on

Is it quite okay
To turn the other way
To avoid hi-bye-conversations
I can't deny that I
Sometimes tell a lie
To avoid awkward situations

When autumn comes in july
Leaving me sleeping
Without goodbye
