i cast a love spell on us tonight

with my magical words, a handful of stardust
of some irresistible worth. maybe a heart-shaped amber,
and a diamondless ring. i will wear you forever,
if time allows and if distance does not matter.
but forever is a word too long, possession a word
too heavy, my idea too insignificant. i don't feel well honey.
i want your hugs, i want your kisses, i want us.
life is stressful and it is tiring to be
always making pom-poms, back flipping to make things whole,
and i just can't wait for that particular moment -
i cannot tell you when, but i know it will happen.
i am not worried, a smart boy like you
will love me. i must have repeated myself too many times.
i have tried to be creative, you know, speaking in codes
playing the witch's worst role.
