Does colour mark your love? / by Jeppe Møgelmose

I’ve always preferred
brunettes, skinny, with wild hair,
full lips and fuzzy eyebrows.

And yet I always seem to
be in relationships with blond girls,
with thin lips and thinner eyebrows.

Perhaps then,
it is no wonder,
that I am always on the hunt,
always ready to pounce,
and always tempted,

when I try to find happiness,
with the opposite of what I long for.

Or,
perhaps,
It’s just because,
I’m always trying,
to regain that first love,
of my youth.

With a brunette, who was skinny,
had wild hair, full lips,
and fuzzy eyebrows.
