A stout man layered in green,
And a girl in red.
What happens when she
falls for him instead?
Out of his mind,
His head in the clear
Still ever seeking
To drive out the fear.
He climbs a tree
and gestures for her
"Look at all you can see"
Forget the memories that were
She said, "I will"
And walked away
Through the green
Forgetting her promise to stay
A day gone,
Maybe next year.
