Just a month before
I graduated,
He walked through the door,
And I was elated
Stuck in a locked box,
His love can stop clocks,
His ardor is clear,
And his armor is sheer
I wish I had met Theo
Before the walls crashed down
He bestowed the steady flow
Of hope that would soon surround
Theo
Would go
anywhere
Without a care
To make me
Feel happy
Struck deep in my core,
Love was located
He chose to ignore
The doubt I’d created
His pleasant praise blocks
My self-imposed mocks,
He dries out my tears,
And he calls out my fears
I wish I had met Theo
Before the walls crashed down
He bestowed the steady flow
Of hope that would soon surround
Theo
Would know
Any glare
Of my despair,
I’m lucky
I’m happy
I didn’t know my hero
could be a man named Theo
Markie to my Cleo
He sparks my libido
I wasn’t just a conquest
I wasn’t just a contest
My madness has been a test
He’s passed it without a rest
I wish I had met Theo
Before the walls crashed down
He bestowed the steady flow
Of hope that would soon surround
Theo
Would go
anywhere
Without a care
To make me
Feel happy
I wish I had met Theo
Before the walls crashed down
He bestowed the steady flow
Of hope that would soon surround
Theo
Would know
Any glare
Of my despair,
I’m lucky
I’m happy.
