When A Girl Falls in Love with a Girl

I used to believe

that love was not real,

     that people never stayed together,

          that eventually they got bored.

But then I met you,

darling,

     and man oh man oh man --

          my heart has not stopped singing.

First, I loved you platonically. 

     You were my best friend, a sparkly one,

          until one day,

          I looked at you

          in a different light, from a different angle

               and suddenly my heart was so loud

               it drowned out all my sense.

You are so orange,

and purple,

and blue,

and infinitely interesting.

It's everything I need.

Do you believe in soul mates?

Because man oh man oh man,

     it has to be you.
