If She Does Run Away

I’ve composed a new ode for my heroine - but

nobody will believe such a person exists - worse

is, I’ll try to play her to feel her feelings & everyone

will say I’ve lost my mind in staging beyond my

league, if I give her the ode male readers'll say:

 

We don’t think like that, such noble ideals never

filled our heads, we’re all for appearance and you

gave her an inside that is too big for this life - so I

sigh, wondering where to bury the ode because

there is no way I’ll ever throw it away - lines so

 

Beautiful it makes me cry - now she’ll never hear

it and I’ll never know whether she would have cried 

too - tonight in my bed, I’ll give her a chance to act 

in my head to see in what way the ode affects her, 

if she does run away I’ll know it was too much…
