WEIRD WEDNESDAY

#nopreamble #freestylewriting #flowwiththemoment

I’LL TELL YOU A STORY

I’ll tell you a story
A story of how black kissed white
And became red.
I’ll tell you the story
Of how he jumped off a cliff
And wasn’t harmed
If only you’d take my pain away
And tell me it’s just a dream.

I’ll tell you the story
Of how Titanic didn’t sink
And Jack and Rose lived happily after.
I’ll tell you a story
Of how I survived the tempest
With all my possessions intact
If only you’d tell me
Yesterday never happened.

I’ll sing you a thousand songs
Loud and clear without even a break,
I’ll sit with you for seven nights
Listening to you tell the same tales over and over
If only you’d stop reminding me
Of what I am
And not what I will be.

I’ll tell you a story so intriguing
You’d plead for it everyday
If only you could fill this void.
I’ll tell you a story
Of how I wrote your story
And you loved it
If only you’d realize
This is just a story!
