Ancient and fragile
Like a bug encased in amber,
I would wait a thousand years to meet you.
Small and determined
Like the robots they use to find old shipwrecks,
I would sink a thousand miles to see you.
Oh, I know the scope of things can be overwhelming sometimes.
I try to be understanding with the hurt you hand me when you're quiet.
Shiny and perfect
Like the crown on someone's prom queen,
You make every moment feel like magic.
Steady and pounding
Like my sneakers on the sidewalks,
I would run.
Yes I would run to you.
Oh, I know the scope of things can be overwhelming sometimes.
I try to be understanding with the hurt you hand me when you're quiet.
