________, Poem by Taylor Fontaine

Those three simple words
I keep saying to you,
Cause the birds
up above to fly right through
my explicit thoughts of me and you.

Forever together we
run past them all,
who want to trip us and watch us fall
into the midst of hatred,
past the moments we shared
breaking me down,
angry and scared.

Why do they care?

Tell me why,
and swear on every star in the sky,
that you will love me no matter what,
and will lay with me and cry,
until we find out why.
