Chasing Saturn

Chasing Saturn

 

Prompt: Let's Slide Down Saturn's Rings!

 

I scream tag your it, as I quickly run away

Your laughter chases behind me

It's a warm spring day

The pale moons are all I see

My lungs begin to scream 

But I can't slow down

This all feels like a dream

As my feet slam against the ground

I dodge around a small crator

And leap over a pile of rocks 

The air is a soft green blur 

Just a girl running in her socks 

I can feel you close behind me

But I just don't want you to win

I feel so light and free

As I start to grin

I dive into the milky blue river

Saturn has become my home

The cool air makes me shiver

The ripples tell me I'm not alone

I try to calm my heart

That was a wild chase

Let us never part

As I kiss your face

Let us swim the water's of Saturn

And make love on the shore

The fire will surely burn

And leave you wanting more

Let us holla hoop with her rings

And dance along the milky way

Let's talk about trivial things

Until we run out of words to say

Because you are my whole galaxy

So let's get lost in space

As long as your with me

Then life is worth winning the race
