"Yes I'm One Of Those Crazy Girls That Can't Stop Thinking About Love"

("One Of Those Girls")


By: Lady By The Sea

I'm one of those.
One of those

Tumblr-fangirl-shipper girls

that pays a little too much attention

to every glance,

to every word

between two characters

that are so obviously

meant for a happily,

happily ever after.

Yes, I'm one of those.
Yes, I'm one of those
girls reading headcanons,
searching for [innocent] fanfictions
and typing
"I can't even!"
for my favorite couples
of old and new stories,
and blowing holes
in those other stubborn
ships with pirate flags.

Yes, I'm one of those.
Yes, I'm one of those
girls in love.
Girls in love
with love stories.

But, I gotta little secret;
A little little secret.

Yes, I'm one of those.
Yes, I'm one of those
girls that love the couples
that survived all the heartbreak,
all the clichés
to get their endgame.
Thank God for endgames.

But, I'm also
one of those;

one of those girls
watching those.
Watching those
real life couples
and wondering,
oh, I'm wondering
when it's all gonna
sink to the bottom,
cause the truth is
I'm one of those girls
believing
happily ever after
just means
time spent together
before the bitter end.

Yes, I'm one of those.
Yes, I'm one of those
that has faith in fiction
but not in the real world.
