*SELLING FISH AND BUYING POLAR BEARS

* Note that I cannot take credit for the following words. The writer is someone very dear to me, and the words to me represent the purity of his emotions for a certain girl. Thought I share it with you.

I SELL FISH (SELFISH) NEARLY EVERYDAY,

SOME DAYS IT’S BUSY, OTHERS ITS NOT,

 

YOU BUY POLAR (BIPOLAR) BEARS TO HUG ,

IN SEARCH OF SOMETHING, SOMEONE TO MAKE IT OK,

 

I SELL FISH AND NOT THINK OF OTHERS,

SELF INDULGE AND DREAM OF BETTER TIMES,

 

YOU BUY POLAR BEARS LIKE IT’S POPULAR,

IT WEIGHS YOU DOWN LIKE AN ANCHOR,

 

I SELL FISH EVENTHOUGH IT MAY SMELL,

I TRY NOT TO THINK OF WHO MAY GET UPSET,

 

YOU BUY POLAR BEARS WITH DRUGS,

THEY RULE YOUR LIFE AND THAT IS WRONG,

 

I SELL FISH YET AM TOLD I AM GENEROUS,

DEEP DOWN INSIDE I SIMPLY DO NOT KNOW,

 

YOU BUY POLAR BEARS IT’S YOUR WEAPON,

YOU DO NOT WANT WAR, SIMPLY PEACE,

 

I SELL FISH AND HOPE TO MAKE A PROFIT,

BANKRUPTCY OF THE SOUL IS MY RESULT,

 

YOU BUY POLAR BEARS YOU HAVE NO CHOICE,

A WEDDING DRESS, CHILDRENS CLOTHES SHOULD BE ON YOUR LIST,

 

HOPEFULLY ONE DAY I WILL NOT SELL FISH,

MY FEELINGS AND DRUG HABIT WILL BE UNDER CONTROL,

 

YOU WILL SIMPLY NOT STOP BUYING POLAR BEARS,

BUT HOPEFULLY LEARN TO SELL AND ACCEPT YOURSELF, YOUR BEAUTY, YOUR PRIDE, AND YOUR SOUL.
