Close your eyes
Imagine a world—
Where only dreams are found
To it, we are bound
…

Alas, where had it gone wrong?
To a world, I ever bemoan
My heart, deep with sorrow—
Yet an inquisitive spirit I owned
…

The silence was deafening
Time only happening
As we stared deep…
Deep into the others soul
…

I stepped forward
Putting beside my fear
Into the unknown I went
Two cheeks full of tears
…

As each leaf turned colors
Tightly grasping its mate
Long now, it wasn’t
It would soon meet its fate
…

Softly, I ask, for why do I feel sorrow,
Is it from years that have passed,
Or could it be the time that I borrow?
…

I recall the hour— 
it ever so apparent.
Eluding my mind—
until this day in the present.
…

I think about the times we had
and those we’ve yet to have
About your big brown eyes
and how they stole my heart
…

When it’s time, I’ll do the right thing
Until then, I want to steal every last second
Just like stealing that first kiss, my heart pounded so
It’s been years, and you’re all that I’ve ever known
…
