manic pixie dream boy
manic pixie dream boy is
quiet and unassuming when necessary
never one to demand attention outright
but the sun isn’t responsible for the orbit
manic pixie dream boy is
queer in a non threatening way
an acquaintance of an ally
but doesn’t really like labels
manic pixie dream boy is
in therapy and thinks you need to go too
he won’t leave if you don’t go
but he will when you behave like you always have
manic pixie dream boy is
brutally honest for your own good
he only lies when it comes to his truth
but will beat you into submission with honesty
manic pixie dream boy is
so interesting and deeply complex
has every hobby and knows every song
but he already forgot your favourite colour
manic pixie dream boy is
not manic but rather erratic and compulsive
eager hungry hands grasping for purchase
but refusing to see beyond the surface
manic pixie dream boy is
like a lion in his greed for temporary solitude
always almost alone but never not by choice
but too afraid to confess craving attention
manic pixie dream boy is
humble and beautiful and at war with himself
a lighthouse, periodically allowing the truth to shine
but in blinding flashes that burn your eyes
manic pixie dream boy is
perfect from afar
custom made for you to fall into
but a trap in the long run
manic pixie dream boy is
a mirror
a mess
