Her eyes they locked with his
For a moment, no longer
Both felt from deep within
A Feeling growing stronger
–
A world still yet to experience
A life still yet to be
He promised her the universe
She promised to make him see
–
Her breath it warmed his chest
His heartbeat soothed her ear
Lay together for hours
Say nothing they just stare
–
They grew together, laughed together
Held each other and cried
Made Shakespearean promises
Could not live if the other died
–
Adventure it was calling
They parted ways and wept
With innocence and hopefulness
Alone now they slept
–
Worry and misunderstanding
Insecurity and fear
Melancholic happiness
All they wanted was each other here
–
Can distance make the heart grow fonder?
Or does it poison, turn love violent?
Hurt, pain, frustration, screams!
Then silence, only silence
–
Now strangers in a crowd
They smile and nod politely
There is happiness and history
Their eyes meet only slightly
–
But their love it is not there
A casualty of youth
Their hearts they cannot bear
Victims of the truth.
