Roses are red,
The color of violets doth differ.
Sugar is sweet,
And a slight taste of you was all I hoped to encounter.
He was the chosen one,
And I, the seeker.
Attended to my needs,
I had found myself a bartender.
Hiding my emotions used to be an easy mountain to climb,
But this time, the slope was a little bit steeper.
I plunged into the pool of emotions,
No surprise, I’ve always been a diver.
I thought of the situation,
Became quite the analyzer.
I had to be insensate,
Had to be eager.
But every time he smiled,
I smiled a little bit longer.
And the words he spoke,
Sank in a little deeper.
I’m trembling with fear,
Writing my resignation letter.
I might have been a badbitch,
Today however, I’m giving up on that career.
Because despite the fact that He had fallen,
I knew deep down that I fell a lot faster.
Love,
A
