Array ( [sid] => 179798 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Hamelin [time] => 2014-11-25 21:23:21 [hometext] => It's difficult to determine if someone actually has feelings for you, if they're playing games or like someone else... [bodytext] => Though the night brings the cold
And the day of stories retold
You’re a recurrent song in my head
The melody soft and consuming
At times it seems my undoing
Others I bask in the sound
Are you the piper of Hamelin?
The weight in my stomach
I believe bears truth
The townspeople cried

Oh Madeline, Madeline
The piper of Hamelin

The chill is back in the air
Bringing a touch of your hair
The scent intoxicates me
Drunk on cracking dreams
I wake, shaking in the night
Withdrawal pours down my face
But morning breaks
The night is chased away
By the warmth of the bed
Where is the touch of skin?

Oh Madeline, Madeline
What do you expect then?

Praying for attention
To curb the growing apprehension
I am just a flightless bird
It is time for me to molt
I no longer need these wings
I’ve grown legs to stand alone
The winter is receding
Moss shakes the snowflakes off
And land upon the grass
Escaping the sun’s rays

Oh Madeline, Madeline
What can I expect then?

My heart flutters noisily
You seem to care, at least supposedly
I can’t shake this constant ring
At times almost silent
But still shatters my sleep
Other times, so heavy
It’s hard to exhale
But I’d like if I didn’t
Smell of poppies sometimes
Another renewal of hope

Oh Madeline, Madeline
Who do you love then?
