Shakespeare never understood
You said you love the rain.
Polluted with sulphur, toxic acids. Eroding chalks and killing passerines.
How could you not close the windows when it rains?
You said you love the sun.
You knew the sun once, before it was shrouded in industrial smokes and gasses causing global warming.
Do you even know what the sun now really looks like?
That's why I'm afraid, when the robot said it loves me too.

Tomorrow
I should do it tomorrow, I thought.
How many tommorows did I have?
I laid on my bed and said tomorrow,
Tomorrow, I will surely do it.
Tomorrow came, I laid on my bed,
And I told myself exactly the same:
Tomorrow, I will surely do it.
A day's left, a week's past, a month's gone,
spring never lasted till winter came.
A year have slipped by me again,
Youth flew away faster than a plane,
Age and decline started to reign
I grew beards long white and plain,
Time was not again the same.
Don't wait for tomorrow, do it today.

A bit Soviet?
My grandad told me he was in Stalingrad with his comrades, building bombs
from scratch with scraps and drinking vodka, and he was a tad cad since he liked books more than chats, so he had to go back to his flat and grab a notepad and tap his pen like a mad lad on the ironclad when it's dark because of bad window glass. That's why I'm glad when I write on Wattpad with my iPad next to my cat in my flat.
