Confused.

I look at the fairy, And think to myself, "I cannot comprehend how much love she pours into something. I cannot fathom creating constellations to help her surmount her obstacles, For she has created her own to guide her." And here I am, sitting under an olive tree, Watching her twirl and slip through the flimsy canopy of the forest. Sorry Hercules, Cerberus has already been slain. Not by us; but by her own magical knight in shining armour. It's strange how jealous I am, Yet I feel no envy or regret. Okay, maybe a slight fragment of regret; But don't worry pal, Cerberus won't be emerging from my dark depths. It's almost like she refracts the stars' rays and creates her own iridescence. Such a spectacular sight. That I cannot caress nor look at for too long, I may go blind. And apparently love is blind. The irony. Well, no matter; I can still relax here on the soil, And remain calm for she isn't going anywhere. Right?
