She use to pick him up every day from school
her long, blonde hair,
fair skin like a winter touch
riding the snowy pales  of the rooftops they touched

Her stare always touched his smile
fixated on his big, blue eyes
and like that, they spoke
without even saying a word
one in the same, blood between the grainy sand

Her laugh would shake the car
as his stories came pouring through
but on days he was silent
she simply anguished in his soft core blues

It was both a struggle and a joy
a bliss of such magnitude
that only the trees that shaped the streets
could see such a tranquil bond

A fondness of one another
that ripped through the scandals
and finally rose through the ashes

Forever autumn
those rides along the quiet, neighborhood streets
such is life, even with the struggle,
fodders fondness as we harden.

"It was both a struggle and a joy

Very nice work with this write.
Enjoyed this verse, all was great, but this verse jumped right off the screen.

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself.
