HOW TO REVIVE MY ALREADY DEAD ROMANTIC SIDE

No, she’s not just asleep.

She’s not even fainted.

Can’t you tell that she’s already dead?

It takes more than countless tries to shake her awake..

You can’t even make her snap out of it.

How long has it been

since the last monster scared her into hiding?

Fear and anger have somehow turned her faith in romance

frozen as a popsicle in the Antarctic.

Perhaps if she gets lucky,

something might come along

and melt it like it’s a global climate change.

So how to revive my already dead romantic side?

No, don’t use that defibrillator on me

by saying I should just move on

and give it another try.

No, not when you can’t even guarantee my safety.

Don’t ask me to hurry

as if it’s my debt to pay.

It’s not your call to bring her back to life.

I’m not even sure it’s still mine,

but I certainly know it has always been God’s ...
