shooting stars
when you see purple,
i hope you smell lilac fields
cause
when i seen maroon,
i'm immersed in the autumn bloom.
when you see the moon,
i hope you rest well
cause
when i see the sun,
i wish our time wasn't done.
ah, the second amendment,
right to bear arms
but
to pursue this deadly chase,
can't compare to your bear embrace.
oh, but you were a trigger,
and i'm a pistol
busy
shooting toxic darts,
through lilac and maroon hearts.
setting down the weapons,
i'd rather sit and wait to
hear
of other "star-crossed lovers"
than face your revolver.
