when you pull open my door,
saying it's late, you need to leave.
it's like i'm gazing at a sunset
so beautiful yet only here for a bit.
the truth is, if i could freeze time
fill it in the snow globe i gave you
i would; wholeheartedly
since it's you i need with me.

since it's you i need with me
to see through the fog of insanity
and to put together the broken bits
of my delicate self's dystrophy.
so i call upon aphrodite
or whoever dictates my fate at love
to never let go of this beautiful soul
i, so fondly, adore.

P.s. never a fan of love odes but it was valentines yesterday and i got in the mood for it :'D
