Dare I Say
To the one that never was and never could be: Muhammad, Alhaji, quickfeet,
While the spirits of the dead
Roam the heavens
The fairytale we seek
Shatters to the extreme
While my suicide kisses
Will soon approach me
Dare I say
I’m in love with you
While the sun swallows
The earth in whole
The world braces itself
For its exile to hell
While I lay in agony
On my death bed
Dare I say
I’m in love with you
Though my love for you remains unrequited
And my lips still await
A never coming, "I love you"
Whispered in a kiss
I will use my last breath
And shout out into the void
With the utmost perfection
I am in love with you
While I will soon embark
On my inexorable end
Will soon be thrown
Into this inevitable oblivion
And will leave this earth
Knowing you’ll never love me
Dare I say
I’m in love with you
Sincerely,
The girl who futilely stared from afar
