True Love I saw you in the park, running golden hair bouncing in your ponytail, and I knew that I Loved you. I bought you flowers the next day, beautiful bright colors, complimenting your smile. Couldn't give them, left them on your porch. Saw your smile when you found them. We jog in the morning, passing waving to people we pass. Your smile brightening lives, leaving happiness in our wake. We go to dinner with friends, laughing talking, joking. The laughing doesn't bother other diners, in fact makes them smile. I sit at the edge of the bed and watch, listen to you sleep, basking in the beauty of you. Your light snoring brings tears to my eyes and I quietly leave the room so I don't wake you. In the morning, you come downstairs and find I have made us breakfast. Confusion and fear spark in your eyes. Your words of Who are you Why are you here, torture me, hurt me. Was it all a game to you? My love is a joke something for you to play with? Anger pain, you aren't who I thought you were. As you struggle, I close my hands around your neck, stopping your damning hurtful cries. Soon you will be as I pictured. Perfect. I smooth your hair as I lay you back in bed, pulling tucking the covers around you. As I leave, sadness threatens to overwhelm overtake me. Will I never find my Love? I saw you in the bar, talking laughing, black hair shining in the lights, and I knew that I Loved you. Line Count: 39 |
