it started with a dedication
faded red inside a tiny book of butterflies
"lost in admiration the wings flew by spelled out my name.
I smiled surprised at how when flickered through Six months went by the summer lost
obsessively the letters dropped into my life
the same soft blood smooth flowing hand
"please try to understand tell you all the ways I need you
strange attraction spreads it's wings
it varies but the smallest things
you never know how anything will change
strange attraction spreads it's wings
and alters but the smallest things
you never know how anything will fade the year grew old incessantly she wrote to me
I laughed in recognition of a favourite phrase
she'd started smoking poetry!
she'd pulled me in.
I answered her
a christmas card in sepia
arranging when and where and how the two of us should meet.
Her opening so well prepared
a nervous smile
I couldn't take my eyes from her
she whispered
"can I use some of your lipstick?"
it was perfect so believable
I couldn't help but feel that it was real
and kissing crimson fell into her waiting arms.
Strange attraction spreads it's wings it varies but the smallest things
strange attraction spreads it's wings
and alters but the smallest things
you never know how anything will change you never know how anything will fade
I wrote to ask if we could maybe meet again before the spring
so alone into the cold new year without another word from her
but weeks went by with no reply until once more my birthday came and with it my surprise but this time nothing was the same.
I was sure you'd be the one but I was wrong "I'm sorry
it seems reality destroys our dreams faded red inside a tiny book of old goodbyes.
Strange attraction spreads it's wings
it varies but the smallest things
you never know how anything will change
strange attraction spreads it's wings
and alters but the smallest things
and you never know.
