Contrary

Posted on September 19, 2013 by Helen

I am a creature
Out of time and style
When blizzards rage
I wear a smile
In victory’s glare
A frown I wear
When joy is here
I shed a tear
I do not think
I come from here

I am a creature
Out of style and place
When others hide
I show my face
When welcomed here
I’ll disappear
When turned away
I’ll cling and stay
I do not think
You’d know my way
