A poem by a fictional character
It feels nice
To have you by my side again
And for me to poke at you lovingly
As if I’d ever make fun of you
You may be the fastest person in the world,
But you’re slow to catching my moves
That show how much I love you
But I know you feel the same
I see how you smile at me
I’d rather look at you than look at the stars,
And I’d do anything to get you to hear me
But I love you just the way you are
Giggling at my silly words or making cute signs with your hands in response
I wouldn’t have it any other way
Beautiful, beautiful, the way you move
And how you worked your way into my heart and soul
Wonderful, wonderful, the way you love others
And the inspiration you are to me
What a pretty, pretty, soul
And such the pretty face
How could a wash up like me
End up on your shores
I’d rip up the world to keep you safe
And mend it together at your wishes
I know you’ll do anything to keep me safe,
Trust me darling, I’ve seen it
But based on the position we have,
We both are never safe
And might never get a moment alone
But we have an eternity ahead of us
To keep the people safe,
And to have you protected in my arms
Take my hand, take my whole life too
Cause I just can’t help
Falling in love with you
That’s how the humans say it, right?
