Will It Sadden Thee ??

  I know places,

will you come with me?

If I show you all my demons,

will it sadden thee?

(What would have happened,

if Medusa hadn't fallen for Posedien?

She would have been a beautiful maiden like before.

Weaponised head, no more? )

What if,

you come looking

for an ametrine in me?

But all what you find are rocks.

That too sedimentary?

will it sadden thee?

(Why was the silence so loud,

when silently she had cried?

If it wasn't for Romeo,

would Juliet have ever died?)

Chiffon decorated dance floor.

Hollywood glam, you long for.

But what if I told you,

Dancing in refrigerator light pleases me.

Will it sadden thee?

( Ordinary in some ways,

extraordinary in others.

Would Aimee have ever been hit by the car,

if she wasn't snapped at, by Sutter? )

You're an admirer of rhymes.

Appeareance beautiful, poetry sublime.

But what if,

free verses flow in me

will it sadden thee?

(your scent is my idea of luxury,

but my life is burning in flames.

Would Betty have ever left her homeroom,

if she wasn't cheated on, by James? )

You wanted me to read you a comic.

But all I wanted to read was a Shakespearean sonnet.

Don't worry, you've got a friend in me.

But still, will it sadden thee?

(I want to see you tonight

under the stars' light

To talk about quintessential love stories.

I'm standing alone tonight,

and you, dear, are nowhere in sight)
