Love, Found, and Unsure

Smile; Everlasting

By Althea LucePublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

Smile

your White teeth,

Brighter than the Moon

it’s all I see in the Dark of night

sleeping flowers Hum

winds Whisper “All is well! There is no ear tonight.”

muted colours snore

stones Laugh at the

two Careless teens, lost in each other

You are all I see.

Your eyes must be shining,

But I do not pay attention.

You step on my fee as we go,

But I do not feel it.

You whisper something in my ear, but it falls unheard.

Nothing else matters at this moment because of

Your smile.

Everlasting

Don’t change for me. I am glad you are. But mean it, please. For yourself. Don’t let this be a fleeting thing simply because your eyes tell you I’m something else.

It won’t last.

I want you to last.
