Listen
My Little Bird - Ed Sheeran
Listen
But if I kiss you will your mouth read this truth,
Darling how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do,
And its not complete yet, mustn’t get our feet wet,
Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon,
And I’ll owe it all to you, oh, my little bird.
My little bird.
- My Little Bird by Ed Sheeran
We're just gonna ignore tonight's episode (as a matter of fact - just pretend that TVD got cancelled after 2x18) and talk about Little Bird for a sec.
(This post isn’t as long as I thought it would be, but omg the feels.)
Oh, shit. Here comes the tears and I haven’t even started. So y’all know that in the books Bonnie is Damon’s little bird right? Well, in my mind, this can fit in the show, too. Like… How do I start?
If we take this bird in, with it’s broken leg,
We could nurse it, she said,
Come inside for a little lie down with me,
And if you fall asleep, it wouldn’t be the worst thing.
But when I wake up, and your make up is on my shoulder,
And tell me if I lie down, would you stay now?
Let me hold ya, oh.
Imagine Bonnie and Damon coming to terms with their differences (and similarities) and start to actually understand each other. Soon, that understanding turns into a friendship and then that friendship blossoms into something more, but they’re being careful about it. It feels so nice.
If we take a walk out, in the morning dew,
We can lay down, so I’m next you,
Come inside for a little home made tea,
And if you fall asleep, then at least your next to me,
And if I wake up, say it’s late love, get back to sleep,
I’m covered by nature and I’m safe now,
Underneath this oak tree, with you beside me.
At this point, they’re truly falling for each other. They’ve connected in such sweet way and all they need is to be next to each other. They’ve finally found the love that they’ve been lacking all their lives. It’s just amazing.
And of all these things I’m sure of, I’m not quite certain of your love,
You make scream, and then I make you cry,
When I left that little bird with it’s broken leg to die.
But after all the shit they’ve been through, they can’t help but be insecure. omg somebody hold me Damon does something shitastic and Bonnie regrets that she ever let the wall around her heart down.
But if I kiss you will your mouth read this truth,
Darling how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do,
And it’s not complete yet, mustn’t get our feet wet,
Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon,
And I’ll owe it all to you, oh, my little bird.
My little bird, whoa oh oh oh whoaa,
My little bird,
My little bird,
You’re my little bird…
Damon mans up and realizes what a good thing they had going. He can’t let it go and Bonnie gives him another chance. They’re both damaged, so they’re not gonna jump into it so quickly but it’s love. Damon’s finally found a true love because BONNIE IS HIS LITTLE BIRD AND HE KNOWS IT.
YAW CAN’T TELL ME SHIT.
