As a dedicated believer of fantasy, the skies
Are green screens and you are the animation
On them, an untraceable, invincible shadow.
Your first word is sweeter than a child's first
Sound to a new mother, I'm suddenly struck.
I am anything but now bold, bold, bold.

Have taken a blushing twist to my pale cheeks.
You break the magnetic fields of the directions
When you walk towards my direction,
It is weak—the sirens of paramedic, but stronger.
The laugh spilling from your throat is a lure,
A true assassinator in a coat made of fur
And I'm a liar if it doesn't make my heart stir.

In the morning, the evening, and the night?
Swear to heaven if you are not a ritual—
