You said you liked storms, so I let you in. Turns out you only like a little rain, and I am a hurricane.
that first breath of love and that first snow fall
brings that first rise of connection between two species of love.
a green soul that hides all its pain so deep inside of its skin
convinces everyone he is a much more mighty king
than whatever the screen wants to tell people he is.
a pink soul that still feels too small on it own
declines to listen to the words from the ones on her phone.
as they scream “red flag!” at her all over the page
for being infatuated with everything that greens mind says.
two souls coupled together wander around the grocery store
as the green one stands unimpressed
the pink one tries to be his best.
they hold hands together and fake a smile
and pretend its all normal
even if green doesn’t believe in all the formals.
as green walk out on pink for the last time, he look at her in her tear-filled eyes and says the same few lies that he does every time.
“im still undecided on you love, but im more than willing to try. lets pick this up again another day when im feeling more alright.”
and as pink smiles through the pain and years of heavy weight, she speaks with compassion even though he doesn’t deserve that fashion.
“il wait here for you babe, every time and every day, i wont ever leave you astray.”
