F/American Not quite golden.
And I'd fold each shining point into an origami castle fit for a queen, fit for you and perhaps... me too I, a majestic creature of the sky You, an empty-faced child on a quilt Look, look, at what I built I'll use each star as a stepping stone to meet you in this world so you don't have to be alone and I don't have to feel like I am Place your hands on these walls.. can you feel my love? Stand on your balcony, stare at the sky up above My gentle playmate, is this better than the empty world you knew? Look around at your origami castle, I made it for you

paper stars draft stanzas
Fills me to the brim with grief, that I’d betray my Lord to lie with a thief

Handle me with care Please, treat me gently I’ll roll over like a fawning dog and show you my soft pink belly lick the hand of you who owns me if it means your harsh words won’t kick into my sides I feel like a ***** before you Show me your sweet affection I can’t do anything more than hang my head and agree Your disapproval is too much to bear At any moment, all your love may dry up (where will that leave me when you decide to leave me?) and I will be left behind, all tied up in the memories of your love Even now, I tremble at your kindness

roll over and beg for forgiveness
There’s millions of stars in the sky Not unique, they all leave When the day comes by And I’ll never call you my sun Cause when darkness settles in All he can do is run But maybe you can be my sky And hold these lights in your hand I’d treasure all your day time all your nights, I’d try to understand And maybe I could be your Earth And you could cover me like a quilt I’d be your haven, your home And you’d make my planet tilt

—- *”It’s tragic, I take it To be stuck on a blanket A girl from the dirt A child, from bones* *And you, you’re so grand since you live above land Above love, above hurt but completely alone”* **“As high as a ceiling Above earth, above feeling, love, and even hurt A human, not quite** **And you, you’re mundane Yet on your quilted plane I sought out your comforts I yearned for respite”** Those stars you let fall? The sparks that you threw? My love, they were, exactly for who? Not me, I can promise My love, just be honest Those stars were scattered Entirely for you

Growing Pains
Never have I seen a girl with eyes so dark Made blacker by the light of my star sparks I have never met a child so utterly girlish Who stares at me blatantly with The cold dead eyes of a fish Who would believe? I- Who could conceive? I- A girl so naive, I.. how shameless of me to consider you primitive There I go again, I Say I love you, then I go and mock you when I Make your name into something so completely diminutive

I can’t help it There’s so much hate in my heart now Anger is flashing it’s ugly claws And ripping all my kindness out Cause really I haven’t been able to take a deep Breath in about three years and it’ll be three years till I can breathe you out again Till I can let you back in again My love if I admit how much you mean to me Where will that leave me When you decide to leave me?

Upon those jewel-encrusted toe-tips she docilely placed her royal-red lips A boy not a king and yet she bowed down to the ******* who tried to soil her crown

Divine
Down by an endless ocean, sitting on jagged rocks Creatures entice with emotion, they sing but never talk A lamenting in devotion, while Demeter cries and mocks I cry out, “From my arms, away from me! “Hell has stolen my Persephone!” That’s not true, dear, I’m not yours to keep So, please, you don’t need to weep
