It needs
love
Rock star
from another dimension
Trapped
inside a clown costume
Tall and
dark and broken but
He’s been
painted bright and jolly
But the
make-up can’t cover his woe
Or his
battle wounds
He needs
something beautiful
He needs
something great
Something he
doesn’t know
He just
stares at the big Ferris and
Waits for
something—anything to lighten his darkness
Breathing in
the carnival lights, exhaling the nicotine
Then he
noticed her
Gentle and
mature…beautifully weird
So he
followed her to see what she’s about
To
understand her soft gaze and her sweet way
To taste her
soul and feel her beauty
He wanted
her
He needed
her
