Must you be so beautiful
Must your eyes be blue
Must their pupils widen
When I look at you?
.
Must you stand so near to me
Must I smell your skin
Must you be here now, if
We can’t meet, again?
.
Must the years that came between
Must the time that’s passed
Must the choices made then
Melt away so fast?
.
Must have been we were too young
Must have not yet known
Must be no one told us
What we’d know when grown
.
Must a feeling’s memory
Motionless in time
Must a need yet unmet
Search for words that rhyme?
.
Must we be so dutiful
Must the things we say
Must their trust belie us
Must we walk away?
.

Might we be searching for frog princes in a fire dragon’s lair? I am very fond of dragons, though, so there’s that.

Indeed. You take me to a bullfrog pond, and point to every one of them. I will find the dragon, every time – and, jump right in! >.<
