A song floated through the hallways
I tried to stop thinking about
Her
So that I could hear all the words
When I made them out I wished I hadn't
In an angelic perfect soft smoky low voice she sang
This will all fall down
Like everything else in the world
This too shall pass
And all of the words we said
We can't take back
Now every fool in town
Would have left by now
I can't replace
All of the wasted days
The memory of your face
I can't help thinking
Maybe if we ever could keep it all together where would we be?
A thousand lost forevers and the promises you have given me
Here's what I'm thinking
I won't be the first heart that you break
You won't be the last beautiful girl
Ones that you've wrecked won't take you back
If you were the last beautiful girl
So tell me one more time
How you're sorry about the way
This all went down
How you needed to find your space
You needed to still be friends
You needed me to call you if I ever couldn't keep it all together
To comfort me
Tell me about forevers and the promises I should never have reached
Here's what I'm thinking
I won't be the first heart that you break
You won't be the last beautiful girl
The ones that you've wrecked won't take you back
If you were the last beautiful girl
It's over now
I'm going now
Because you're everyone else's girl
It's seems to me you'll always be
Everyone else's girl
I sat down were I was then
Hands over my ears
I couldn't listen to
Her
Anymore
I couldn't listen to the girl I had been
Ridiculously infatuated with
For over two years
Sing about her recent heartbreak
About how my best friend had broken her heart
But I was drawn out of my thoughts
By footsteps coming towards me
I looked up
To see shining silver elfin hair falling
Like a waterfall
Towards my upturned face
Blue moon ice fire eyes gazing into my mud brown ones
"Um… hi?"
I muttered
Mouth dry and hands clammy shaking
"Hello."
Her voice was a kitten purring
Incense rising
Angels chanting
Dream songs
"Well, Ginny… Will you be my next beautiful girl?"
