For the 10 pairings challenge. My first attempt at freeverse. Be kind. ;)
She's got pink hair
and
BIG eyes
and
a whole lot of nerve.
yes. she has a lot of nerve to go loving somebody
like you.
but your excuses fall on
deaf ears
and the lines of your face are ignored by
love-blinded eyes
and the fact that you have a furry little p/r/o/b/l/e/m
doesn't bother her at all.
And that bothers you a lot.
It bothers you that she's known all along
**as most young women half your age do**
that you need her
even worse
you want her
and that she's your true north
your star to lead you home
(wherever that is)
and that you've run in every other direction
to avoid the truth
(or your TwIsTeD version of it)
and maybe
(just maybe)
you are hers too
