Mint Chocolate Chip by Saul Singleton

Looking at the pale-shouldered red-haired girl,

She took her greyed teeth and bit into the fuchsia popsicle.

What's worse is that she used her two front teeth to bite into the watery mess.

She sent a shiver up my spine.

She took her grey teeth and bit into the fuchsia popsicle.

She safeguarded her heart and bit into mine.

She sent a shiver up my spine.

I can't think about her without getting a brain freeze all the time.

She took her grey teeth and bit into the fuchsia popsicle.

Our love melted away on the sidewalk. She had gone astray.

She safeguarded her heart and bit into mine.

We went down a rocky road, and she went away.

Our love melted away on the sidewalk. She had gone astray.

She would toss my feelings in the freezer and wait until the right moment to open it back up again, to take a big bite of my heart.

What's worse is that she used her two front teeth to bite into the watery mess.

All I could do was stop and stare.

Looking at the pale-shouldered red-haired girl.
