Take a page

Draw a happy face inside a heart

Picture you, picture me, picture everyone

 

Draw the lines

Of fireworks exploding in the sky

Red and blue, pink and green, cover all the white

 

Paper girl, standing in a row of paper doll chain

And look at him: hearts flying from his head around mine

 

Thought bubble

With shuttlecocks and racket on my mind

Instead of hearts, ‘stead of love

I have badminton!

 

And all the other things

That make me turn away

From the space between us, from our paper chase

 

Paper girl, standing in a row of paper doll chain

And look at him: hearts flying from his head around mine
