Lately
Her green eyes turned blue
She was tangled
Up in you
She changed herself
Tried to
Make herself just like you wanted
And you were supposed to make her safe
Be a safe space
But you wanted
Her to be like you wanted her to
And I poured her coffee
And everyone that meets her
Can’t help but fall in love with her
And her hair is still the same
And her tongue is still foul
And she still
Isn’t just like you wanted
You know
The first time
We entered space
And they looked back
On earth
Realized just how insignificant we really are
That’s what I felt
The day I saw you
Across the room
Everything else
Just faded
And her green eyes turned three shades of blue
And she’s tangled up in you
Love her her right
Love her true
Whether you know it or not
You’re insignificant
On your own
And she’s everything
Everything to you …
