"Tell me a story."
She rested her head
On my shoulder
And even though I knew
It was a gesture of friendship
Sparks traveled up my spine
Like fireworks igniting
In my bones.
"About what?"
She shrugged.
"Anything
Just make it up."
I thought for a moment
And knew just the story to tell.
The story of us.
"Once upon a time
There was a girl
Who didn't love herself
So she accepted the love
She thought she deserved.
She believed the lies
And suffered the beatings
And told herself
That he loved her.
He really really loved her.
You see
There's another boy here as well
And his love for her was pure.
It originated from his heart
But he couldn't quite manage
To get it to travel to his lips.
And so he keeps it hidden
Inside a cloud of mysteries
Floating along in a sky
Full of lonely hearts.
This girl loves the boy too
But not in the way
That he loves her
And every night
He stays awake
Until the early hours
Thinking about her
And wishing
That those words
Would reach his lips."
