They say only fools fall in love
so an idiot I am
to have fallen in love so young
and so fast
and so without a glance back.
Love's tragic ocean
has followed me around
for years
and I have stayed above water
because I will marry him
eventually.
I have known him for years
he is my friend
my brother
my partner in crime
and so I stay afloat
because I will marry him
eventually.
I have seen others drown in love
I have heard their screams.
They tried to cross the ocean
but then failed and stayed forever
on the sandy floor.
I wait for the day when his loved ones
will make it across
and he will await with open arms.
But the day is yet to come.
And so my heart beats on
and I dodge every wave
closer and closer
until one day
the sea will part
and he will give his heart
to me
