![]() Cotton Candy TearsA Poem by Emma Raether![]() Based off of a real experience, when I was sulking over a recent break up and eating cotton candy, these thoughts, these questions of love came to me. People seem to have such a difficult time finding love when they're young, does it get any easier or la![]()
I quiver as I spill my cotton candy tears,
about the sweetest moments in my 15 years.
Melting so steadily
those memories pass by…
but at least I got the chance to say goodbye.
Sulking now with an empty brown bag;
one heart
once more
begins to ask,
will you love me when I’m old and grey,
when I’m not the girl I am today?
Will you hold me when
I lay in a hospital bed?
Will you dance with me
in worn leather shoes,
your cheeks still red?
Will you reply with more than you eyes
when I think to myself,
Imagine how lonely I’d be without you.
