Melancholy Nostalgia

If I should have a daughter 

I will tell her 

of a boy I knew

 

-

 

They will give you roses 

Tell you of your beauty 

Of your kindness 

Of your innocence

 

They will tie red bows of ribbon around your heart 

Bless it with a kiss

Prompt you to tear down your walls 

"Let me in"

They will say 

"I won't hurt you" 

They will say 

 

They will guide and support you 

Lift you up when you need it 

and especially when you don't 

 

They will surround you in their words

So enticing 

That you are lured to them 

The sound of their heartbeat 

The warmth of their hand on your cheek 

 

They will lead you into a fantasy 

Showing you something you never knew you wanted 

 

Some will truly love you 

Until his love reaches the depths of the Earth 

 

But this one

This one broke my heart 

honey

 

- if I had a telescope, would I have seen this meteorite coming?-
