Temporary

Disclaimer: I do not own.
Note: I was going for RedX/Starfire. (I'm becoming predictable!) You may find it a little… corny? Wow. The one time I meant for a little angst, it comes off as corny.
Teach me how to smile
I'll teach you how to fight
Teach me how to laugh
Teach me wrong from right
I'll teach you how to talk
Although I love the way you do
And as you struggle through
I'll practice my smile next to you
Tell me when to stop
I promise to obey
Someday
Tell me where to kiss
It's a fact:
I won't hold back
You'll race into my arms
You'll tell me all about your day
And I'll listen closer than you think
Memorizing what you say
Those secrets I will, one day,
Give away.
Amusement and disgust
Mixtures of guilt and pride
I contemplate: love or lust?
I'll listen as you confide
Every hero has one weakness
Apparently you have a few
I smile as you tell me those
And shyly end with, "You,"
If only you knew.
Teach me wrong from right
Because I don't seem to understand.
I love everything about you
While on the other hand
I'll use everything against you
Just like a previous friend
You just can't comprehend
Why this has to end
I'm waiting for you to somehow know
I'm waiting for you to run
I'm waiting for you to fight
But, my love, I've already won
Green eyes filled with light
I hold onto you tight
Kiss you with a sigh
Silently say goodbye
Because love this perfect has to be
Only temporary.
'Just like a previous friend' The friend is Terra, just in case you missed that connection. I thought about putting up a big explanation, but I wasn't sure. Hopefully you'll understand what I was thinking...
Please, tell me what you think.
Review?
