Green Eyes

The damp grass beneath her feet

Makes her want to run

She can see the lightning flash

With thunder sure to come

.

She looks around and sees

She is truly alone

People are whisks of wind

No place feels like home

.

Her feet plead her to go

With no destination in mind

She runs away aimlessly

She leaves everything behind

.

Her eyes are smeared with water

Heavy is her breathing

She tried so hard to fix it

But nothing she did was pleasing

.

Finally she meets the edge

She searches all around

But she is not alone this time

Green eyes stare her down

.

She glances at the bottom

As he shakes his head

He reaches out for her

And this is what he said:

.

"Take a deep breath and think

Is this really what you need?

There are other solutions, miss

Don't you dare make that leap."

.

She says nothing but only stares

Green eyes pleads a little longer

She takes a step away from the edge

She's beginning to get stronger

.

"Don't do this" he tells her

"You're not alone anymore

I will stay by your side,

I'll give you something to live for"

.

She stretches out her arms

As the wind breezes by

She jumps right off the edge

Falling through the damp sky

.

Everyone that said they'd stay

Would always finish with goodbye

He'd leave like all the others

"So long, green eyes"
