hopelessly

I hate your golden curls,

the way they get matted when you sleep. 

I hate your boring blue eyes,

the way they look when you weep. 

I hate your sword of bronze,

the way you can call it at your hip. 

I hate all the words you say,

the way that they move off of your lips. 

I hate that we are roommates, 

the way I see you every morning. 

I hate when you run into danger, 

the way you nudge off every single warning. 

I hate that you're invincible, 

the way you think this is all a game. 

I hate all of your stupid magic,

the way that it bursts me into flames. 

But the thing I hate most about what you do,

is the way it makes me hopelessly in love with you.

    We run back to your house,

    The lights are still on,

    And they cover your freckled face,

    Like it's the sun.

     

    The grass brushes our feet,

    And the wind catches in your hair,

    We sit out on the sand,

    The fog covers the sky,

    And blankets the world,

    Like a shield. 

     

    The waves nip at our feet,

    The water's cold

    But I'm warm because you hold my hand,

  • observation i

    We stand on the dock,

    The sun has set,

    But I can see your happiness 

    Even in the dead of night.

     

    The streetlight's on,

    The metal is all rusted

    And covered in salt,
