Lacing my fingers together
Hands held in prayer
For my fair-skinned beauty, truly stunning
        With her sunny smile and soothing voice
        While praying,
My mood ring turns a bright and vibrant turquoise

I’ve made my choice.
        Through the blues, brought on by dissonant distance
                    Into this raging red, with its violent friction
                                We’re conflicted, we’re playing out ancient pains
                                And faded scars,
                                Unstated heart-hurt striking sparks and fanning flames
                                                            The curtains drawn
                                                            We’re actors burning on
                                                            This self-divisive stage.

        But we’re burning for each other.
                    We’re lovers, lovers!
Learning in wonderland, yearning to understand
The bursts of colour, the outbursts of colorful language
A song of enchantment,
        And the static that strangles us.

Entangled within this is my most secret wish for us.
        LOVE ETERNAL, LOVE UNENDING
                        A frozen snapshot of your pretty face flushed
                        Don’t waste your blush, baby
                        Your natural glow is more than enough to dazzle me
                        Your laughter alone can bolster me up, your tears can flatten me
                                                            Completely.
                                        So laugh and cry for me.
                                        Laugh and cry until the end of time
                                        And make my world complete.
