Trick or Treat

Alright so Halloween is over. And since I have to work in less then an hour I won't go into my history lesson over it. Maybe later.

For now I will content myself with a short post. I went trick-or-treating last night with the kid I babysat. Amazingly I actually got candy despite my refusal (as I had no bag). I also took some of the girl I went withs candy as when we got home she almost went straight to sleep, I was going through it (to make sure no one tampered with it). It was all fine. I just took the stuff she doesn't like or I knew she wouldn't eat (chips). She got a ton of candy though. Seriously.

Today I went shopping, and got a Christmas CD (no music just singing. It is so pretty). And looked for Christmas gifts. Found none.

Anyway I'll just post the poem I promised you all in the last poem then go.

Self

Just be yourself -

A line that's said

Time and time again.

.

Just be yourself -

Different

Special

Unique

Like everyone else.

.

Just be yourself -

It sounds so easy.

Smile when you want

Cry when you want,

But only when the

Want is appropriate.

.

I try to be myself -

But who I am

Is not who you want.

Do you not see this

Mockery that is me?

.

You do not want me

To be myself.

My carefully spun web

Comforts you.

This smile of glass

Warms you.

Who I really am

Scares you.

.

To be myself

Is out of character.

My desperate attempts

To escape this self

Is seen as odd.

I must shape-up,

Become myself.

.

Just be yourself

You say again.

.

As if you'd let that happen.

And there it is.

Gotta go.

Aurum.
