Eros and Psyche
Dark it was, all around
Zero light and zero sound
And there sat Psyche, anxious and afraid
At the horrible mistake she might have made
Reading back through her texts, scrolling back through her phone
Her eyes, they laid on the solemn and lone
Text
There was nothing next.
"Dear Psyche, I like you"
Her hair she did so lightly chew
"Meet me, my dear, on the wall"
She looked down to confirm, with fear she might fall
"At midnight, wait for me at midnight"
In this dark there was no light
She waited.
Among the trees surrounding her
The crickets chirped their quiet chirr
A ruffle
A scuffle
And there he was
This handsome boy made her heart buzz
His bright blue eyes and light blonde hair
Made her ever so aware
Of her acne and her messy hair
He stepped close and his shy gaze
Turned slightly aways
Making him look even cuter.
"My dear crush, I hate to ask"
"But do you even like me back?"
Her heart abuzz, her mind wary
Made this very very very
Easy.
She said back, "Yes I do"
"Although I've never seen you."
His gaze turned back to her
And his shy smile melted her
Stepping closer, careful careful
He gets up on the wall besides her
She lets him
Leans into him
He wraps an arm around her
And they listen to the quiet chirr
And the still moon above them shines her light down.
