Candy Says



Candy says, "I've come to hate my body

and all that it requires in this world"



Candy says, "I'd like to know completely

what others so discreetly talk about"



I'm gonna watch the bluebirds fly

over my shoulder

and I'm gonna watch them pass me by

maybe when I'm older



what do you think I'd see

if I could walk away from me?



Candy says, "I hate the quiet places

that cause the smallest taste of what will be"



Candy says, "I hate the big decisions

that cause endless revisions in my mind"



I'm gonna watch the bluebirds fly

over my shoulder

and I'm gonna watch them pass me by

maybe when I'm older



what do you think I'd see

if I could walk away from me?
