I look deep into your mysterious green eyes
This isn’t the first time I’ve looked
Yet it is the most memorable
This time I see everything that we’ve been through deep in your eyes
Our life when we were children
It’s prom night and here we are once again wanting to escape
We can’t handle the noise and crowd and so…
We run
That is how we always escaped before
We ran through our forest
It is beautiful
There, we see everything in a different light,
Especially ourselves
We feel a certain indescribable energy to be with one another
In the woods we love each other for who we are
Without the judgment of the people around
As we run, I cannot think
Everything is a blur
We pass our overgrown field
And also the swing we made when we were little
I remember we were so proud
Now it is old and covered with moss
Finally we reach our destination where everything unfolds into a world of enchantment
We climb up to our tree house and sit in silence
We are alone at last with the warm night air around us
I see you in the pale moonlight
But I don’t just see you, I see us in those deep green eyes.

~btw this is something i just made up when i was listening to some music...its not from life experiences~

Well this piece is outstanding. I loved the imagery, the sweet story... I pictured it all happening. Makes me jealous.

"I remember we were so proud
now it is old and covered with moss"

Now THIS line hit me. Wonderful symbolism.
Welcome to Passions in Poetry. I definitely can't wait to see more of you.
