when Taylor said
we never painted by the numbers, baby
rosé flowing with your chosen family
and it would have been sweet
if it could have been meif one thing had been different,
would everything be different today?you know the greatest films of all time were never made
when you are young they assume you know nothing
chase two girls, lose the one
you wear the same jewels that I gave you
I can change everything about me to fit in
cross your heart, won’t tell no other
your braids like a pattern
love you to the moon and to saturnyou won’t have to cry
or hide in the closetand though I can’t recall your face
I still got love for youwhispers of “are you sure?”
“never have I ever before”your back beneath the sun
wishin’ I could write my name on itmake sure nobody sees you leave
hood over your head, keep your eyes downleave the perfume on the shelf
that you picked out just for himyou showed me colors I can’t see with anyone else
you taught me a secret language I can’t speak with anyone else
were there clues I didn’t see?
give me the blues and then purple-pink skies
will you kiss me on the porch
in front of all your stupid friends?
if you kiss me, will it be just like I dreamed it?i’m only seventeen, I don’t know anything
but I know I miss youstanding in your cardigan
kissing in my car againI would die for you in secret
the queers understood✨ ✨
reposting this to get it there in the feed for people who wouldnt otherwise run across it because, well, i’ve decided we havent cried enough today and that’s that.
