I was sad for a long time
They gave me magic candies to fix it
I think they mixed them up with love potions
Ever since, I've fallen in love with everyone who sees me
I have fallen for the moon
for the stars
for the clouds
the birds
I have fallen for the entire sky
and everything under it
I have fallen in love with the melancholic
the strange
the broken
and even the dead deer by the roadside
I've fallen in love with life itself
Trying to embrace my love-sickness into something better, this is a riff off of a verse by Sappho when she asks Aphrodite to make her fall in love with life itself.
