Perfect World

by Devina

In a perfect world, we would’ve been together.

Arm in arm, staring at some magnificent beauty,

Discussing how life Joker and we Harley Quinn.

Seduced by his sweet words and promises,

Turned into a lunatic in the name of love.

Sitting under the stars, cold night and thick blanket,

Homemade pies and bottles of wine.

Analyzing a movie like writing an academic paper,

wondering if the world could see it the same way.

In a perfect world, we wouldn’t have so much pain,

And you and I could be happy.

 

But this world is not perfect, far from it even.

So there you are, and here I am.

Wondering how the world could be better,

One day at a time.
