She wore her heart
towards the open road
her eyes brought a seasons knees
come towards the small grounds hall

She was dressed in lavender,
laced, black boots
with auburn strands of hair
touching the small eyes
that watched from the open road.

Her skin was made of the sand
by the waist side of the road
slightly rugged, but softly brown
in the way its tone hit the tilt of the sunset

She watched the storm come
maybe this time
her legs won't trust
the floor to hold secrets, anymore

Its the soft way that she carried her face
towards the north bound train tracks
where the carriage of trees
used to find their way
through the heart of a woman's chilled back.

The open road
lent its hand
towards her lighter shade of her eyes
with her wrist soft, rather silent
for the wince of a woman's voice
is never as sad
as a mans long journey by his lonesome.

It's true that there's always at least two sides to every story... but, still, in this case, I seem to have my emotions drawn more toward the side of the woman and her thoughts as she's looking down that open road. Enjoyed!

Lighthouse-

There are two sides to every story, sometimes three.  Happy you enjoyed.

Cheers
