Forgive me,
If I am not the type of girl,
That likes rock music and,
Jumps up and down at those high notes.
Forgive me,
If I much prefer the 70's melodies,
Over the new melancholies they sing in the name
of romance,
That makes the delusional little girl,
In me dream about the days,
I did not get to see,
When dances and dresses were the norm,
When what I dream of,
Was not called old-fashioned,
It was just love,
Back when commitment,
Meant a lifetime,
And friends were for ever.
-Actually, I am unapologetic about it.
-Oyin B.
Author's Note-
This one's to all those old romantics like me who love dark academia like I do.
Have a great day daydreaming about whenever!
Love,
Oyin.
