Relative
I know you
dark chocolate man
a boy
once
barefeet in a tree
connecting to a roof
i looked up at you
my local tarzan
too scared to swing
not skilled enough
I watched you
googly eyed
no wrong....never wrong
jump at your beckon and call
I was a princess in your eyes
my protector...forever
my pedestal for you
dizzying
my googly eyes focused on you
Your words hurtful but perfect
I knew you
dark chocolate man
you carried me
and I fell once
I looked at you through bloody eyes
I saw perfect
I saw you
cry...fear
i caused you to be scared...
i'm sorry
all forgiven
You...you look familiar
I heard words
i'm not a princess anymore
my protector left me
alone
i watch you
burnt chocolate man
and feel you
i look at you through watery eyes
where are you?
where are you...my prince....
