oh, honey
\o\p|e/n/ your eyes
don't you even dare—
because he won't, you know he won't
won't remember when you two were soinlove
won't remember when the s^k^y was a salty blue s~e~a
and the .s.a.n.d. brushed against your skin like a thousand tiny [reminders] of—
(of what?)
.
oh, honey
shake your head
don't you even think—
he was there, but that doesn't mean he should know
know why you look at him too fondly across the classroom
know why you don't stop smi~ling after he looks away
and brush the xcxoxbxwxexbxsx of reality away from your eyes so you can—
(can what?)
.
oh, honey
*f*o*r*g*e*t* your follies
don't you even try—
even his name (scorpius, scorpius malfoy) .::screams::. forbidden
forbidden from in[teracti]on, frien[d]ship, mo[]re
forbidden from what your soul )a)che(s( for in the small hours of the morning
and can only be satiated when you're fully, finally in a world filled with—
(with what?)
.
oh, honey
{a[c(c●e)p]t} your fate
don't you even pretend—
because it's not real, that |curséd| world you love so dearly
dearly you think of him (scorpius, you call to him)
dearly he thinks of you (rose, he whispers gently)
and all is well in your *saccharine* universe built for—
(built for 0two0.
a universe built for 0two0
a world filled with lies
engineered so you can dream
of the .s.a.n.d. and the s^k^y and the s~e~a
and so it doesn't [remind] you
that even though it's built for 0two0
it's only inhabited
by 0ne.)
