swept away

[word_lover]

The words you wove around me
Were innocent
Breathtaking
You shook then into my ear while I
Wished on stars
With my eyes shut tight
Twirling on the deck
Someday I’ll grow out of this
This silly yearning
This simple belief in anything
That sounds
Pretty
Someday I’ll be wise
One day
I won’t be arguing
With inner voices
That scream for justice
While my own words
Not nearly as eloquent as yours
Fall apart
Shaken
Beneath the wooden slats
