A: It’s my time. Leave.

B: Are you going to put him through it again?

A: What do you mean me ‘put him through’? You have done what you had to. He needs me now.

B: For sure. Leave him alone.

A: Right. That’s what you need to do right now. Just go.

B: Why do you do this to him? Don’t you want to see him live… happily?

A: You should be saying that. Can’t you see what you’ve done to him?

B: Me? What do you do to him every time you come? You leave him hopeless, full of desolation.

A: I bring reason; as opposed to you who just takes him on an illusive trip. If only I get to spend more time with him. He seems to be so taken by your spell.

B: It just means that he wants to be happy.

A: It just means that you blur his vision.

B: I show him hope.

A: Without any vision.

B: If I was not there you would have killed him.

A: If you were not there he would have lived.

B: It’s no point. All you can do is talk. That’s how you mess with his head.

A: I make him see things…

B: You make him see things and call me

A: I make him see things which he can’t… because of you.

B: I just want him to be happy.

A: Only to be more miserable later.

B: He is miserable all the while when he is with you.

A: He is miserable because he sees how you deceived him. But then you being more attractive lure his reason away and he falls for you again.

B: He doesn’t want to be sad. That’s why I come.

A: He is sad because of you in the first place. If you don’t make him see what is not there, he will not be sad when I show him that it is not.

B: You know what… I am here because he likes me, and my being around makes him forget the dread you put him through.

A: First of all he doesn’t like you. He prefers being with you because you, being more attractive and distractive, keep him occupied from the naked reality and bare facts that I throw in his face.Secondly, if you were all he needed, then I wouldn’t be here in the first place. I am here because the reality that he chooses to ignore starts taking pieces of him, which it would invariably do if not addressed properly. This, is thanks to you. I am his damage control mechanism.

B: You are his sap-sucking mechanism.


Well...

Happy Birthday

Don't know where to find you so I write 5 hours 41 minutes and 30 seconds in advance...

Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday dear ...
Happy Birthday to you

Hey Bob... Couldn't love you more

You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last.
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast.
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun,
Crying like a fire in the sun.
Look out the saints are comin' through
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.
Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
The empty-handed painter from your streets
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets.
This sky, too, is folding under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home.
All your reindeer armies, are all going home.
The lover who just walked out your door
Has taken all his blankets from the floor.
The carpet, too, is moving under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
Strike another match, go start anew
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
