A Blonde Girl and a Black-Haired Girl
Farista Sairuv -0001 (Dhaka)
It's after midnight.
But
you can't sleep.
And we're safe and tucked away,
in the girls' dormitory.
And
I wanna hold your hand.
I wanna hold your hand.
I wanna hold your hand .
And they think you're dreaming of blankness.
It's after midnight.
But
we're rebellious.
And both on the top bunk,
secretively whispering.
And
I do hold your hand.
I do hold your hand.
I do hold your hand.
Palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.
It's after midnight.
But
we don't sleep.
And the moonlight's on your lips,
your eyelashes and my hair
And
I can hold your hand.
I can hold your hand.
I can hold your hand.
What soft hopeful victory is this.
