the perfect mistake
doesn't come into your life
as an ugly thing
oh darling, it's like
warm fire on a cold winter
heating up your skin
it's like finding this
oasis in the desert
quenching up your thirst
it even comes as
human presence on sadness
candle in the dark
the perfect mistake
never regrets hurting you
and will eat you whole
it's thought-consuming
like a passionate first kiss
creating daydreams
fulfilling wishes
like shooting stars in the sky
or is it your eyes?
comes as a surprise
the kind that leaves you breathless
filling the spaces
the perfect mistake
won't come with horns and tail but
as this boy you like
