a greek wedding

and when i looked u in the eye 

i realized they were wrong about medusa’s stare. 

your eyes don’t turn me to stone,

i just become too entranced by their hypnotizing beauty

that i no longer wish 

to move or look away

 

i’d tie the strings of piano keys

to my wrists 

and play ur favorite song in forte while dancing for a puppet master

if it made u happy

 

in your arms i would 

brag to the devil

of how i touched heaven

without entering it

your arms are gates

holding the sweet embrace 

of heaven on earth

 

i adore lying heart to heart

recharging with you

gave my mind a jumpstart.

the percussion of love

rivals the thunder of storms 

breaking through our clear skies

as we hold eachother close

and count the seconds

in between lightning,

i realize there’s not a single thing

i’d rather be doing with 

anyone else

 

the smile that graces

your face

makes me wonder if white lace

would fit my frame

an american wedding 

styled one in the same

 

oh how i love you so

you just don’t know

my dearest treasure

there is no scientific measure

for how much you mean to me

i’m so blinded by love

it’s hard to see

with my glasses on 

i’m still blinded by thee 

 

and maybe loving you

will be the sword 

in my achilles heel,

but i’d rival icarus flight

if the sisters of fate would 

so delight

i would face zeus’s wrath

even though i’d drown

in my own bloodbath

 

i love you more than i should

probably more than you would

but that’s okay

cause at the end of the day 

i love you

for better or worse

for richer or poorer

i feel you will be a lesson

that leaves my heart

crushed on the floor
