Asfour: A bird's social and emotional thoughts.

They are reflections of situations whether real or imaginary. They are soft and sensitive observers. They are childish in many occasions, but most importantly, they are true.

Dare to Dream!

You know that sketch idea that you start but never finish because you're afraid you'd screw it up. Sometimes a year later you start sketching that same idea and you actually finish it! End of the story.

Cups

I tried to fill your cup
with happiness and love
I sent good vibes your way
I sat on my knees and prayed
for you to be joyous again
I fell asleep believing that my prayers will be answered

I woke up the next hour
with a pain in my chest and no happiness
I've sent you all I've got
every last bit
your sorrow became mine
and my joy was stranded somewhere between you and me
you did not accept it
you did not return it
you kept it around just incase
you took it for granted

I learned that your cup is yours and I can't fill it
and my cup is broken and only I can fix it

Rubber

We never faded
my dear
we are bright as stars
like rubber
the further we stay apart
the stronger we bounce

Hoping for More

when we first met

we were distant

but became friends over time

I was hoping for more

We grew closer as the days went by

I adored you when you're nice and sweet 

and I would ignore you when you're mean to me

you gave me looks 

of I'm hoping for more

but I'd be so mad

to even look back

Last time we met

in a crowded place

in a haze we talked

I looked into your eyes 

and saw nothing there 

you probably looked at mine

and met my empty stare

we talked a bit

laughed a bit

then parted ways

and neither of us hoped for more

Sunset

There's a gorgeous sunset
behind that tall tall building
It's there I'm sure
I see glimpses of red
here and there
the gradient of blue and purple
makes my heart dance

I'll chase it
I have to
Head west I say
There's a sunset behind that tall tall building
I bet it looks amazing from there
head west let's see
behind this tower of concrete
blue red and purple
Colors I dream of
Everyday

Magic

Sometimes I feel
like we used up all the magic
on longing weeks
on the stories in our heads
and nothing is left for us
when we meet
