I’ll Take You To Mars If You Promise To Sing Me To Sleep

Our universe is 13.6 billion years old, and I somehow had the luck to exist at the same time as you. (Photo from Pinterest)

Worlds apart, I cherish thy love and warmth you give

Eternally, I swear, with the very life I choose to live

Arrows sprang from Cupid’s bow and set my coat aflame

Requiting my fondness with his deftness and his aim

Everlasting sorrow was shattered by the deed

Friendship, pure and whole, forged my earthen creed

Oh, my dear, I had been drowning in the sea

Reveling in your every grace, I found that I could breathe

Bring my hand to your waist, so I can guide you towards Mars

I would lay beside you on the dust and name every single star

Deepening in sleep, I wished to keep your hand in mine

Did the universe know that we were living on borrowed time?

Enchantress, my dear, I felt how our lips were pressed

Nova sparks inside my heart… love, lay me down to rest
