All I Want

image

All I want is a love

that burns brighter

than the sun most days.

But I’m nothing more

than a wish he never made,

we crossed paths in July.

I never planned on falling

in love with him.

I’m pulled by the world

and I become someone

everyone wanted to keep.

I’m not a doll you can lose.

I’m much more than a witch

who’s fellow country girls

burned louder than pieces

of the sky falling down on me.

All I want is nothing short

of complicated.

Love shouldn’t be so complicated

when it comes down to writing

a fairytale that two people

can live in when we love and love.

It’s not new to fall in love

with the fates and the sky.

It’s an ancient tradition

to fall in love with someone.

Blue eyes and charming smile.

The nature of it all

is graced with the etiquette

of dancing in an empty room

with no one else around

but the two of you.

He has never been fearless

before she came around.

That’s what they all say

about my mind and my heart.
