Wait and Weight

birds have nest and they call it home

but you sneak from my back door

in fear of your girl

when you can leave her

and we can build our home

 

you take the path away from plain sight

you use perfume to hide fragrance of our love

this affair born from match fire

and is burning my skin

tell me is the wait eternal? and

will the weight continue to grow?


About- This poem is part of my poetry collection titled "Folklore: The Folk Tales of Summer", which is written based on the stories sang by Taylor Swift in her 8th studio album folklore. This poem is based on the song "illicit affairs" and is about Augustine asking James to stop sneaking around behind the back of Betty and just come and live with her.
