The One

When an alien came down from his spaceship to tell me he loved me, I cried

I couldn't believe how he looked at me… with such intensity and beauty

It made me believe that fate must organize the cosmos 

For how else could such perfection exist?

Maybe we were from different worlds

But love is a universal force that moves us all

I took his long green hand in mine and, 

Because this galaxy is huge 

And I worried

Made him pinky swear that we would never lose each other 

He was easy to love my tall green man,

He liked being little spoon when we cuddled and loved watching Indiana Jones films at night 

We laughed hard and loved harder

Finally, one night when we were looking up at the sky we saw a shooting star

I prayed on it 

He wondered what I wished for obviously, but I told him what I’ll tell you

It doesn’t come true if anyone else knows

And I couldn’t risk my eternal happiness for anything 

So these lips are sealed

And while poets bare their entire souls with a certain sadistic recklessness

This is the one secret I’ll keep 

The one
