how can a girl
with a face so beautiful
and eyes so wide
be so full of heartache
and so drained of hope?

consider each string
from each violin
to be another chapter
in a story told
only out at sea
by old sailors drunk on whiskey
and praying for the boat to sink

meanwhile meteorites
never reach the ground
while trying to destroy everything
but save the world
for last
