Crazy

Cherry

At first you draw a small square,
Like the world you have in your head.
Then you paint it black,
As it truly is.
"Isn't it crazy, if you think about it?"
You say, positive that I will nod 'yes'.
"It doesn't matter", you continue,
Disappointed that I did not respond,
And you draw a heart.
