"My heart aches for what I can't have, my mind thinks of only the impossible, my face aches from smiling so long, but I can't finish smiling until the pain of losing you is gone. These eyes have cried a million tears, your love has caused a billion fears, although I've cared for what seems a million years." The words slip out of my heart and stained the paper with each letter that marks it. With every word write, I wish things were different. "I wish I couldn't feel the pain of losing you yet I know I wouldn't bring you back for all the money in the world. 'Cause you're walking the streets of gold. When you think of me, am I who you'd want me to be?"
I feel a tear slip down my face, as I continue. These are the feelings I can't show to my readers. They know me to be happy and shy. I don't want them to see me like this, an emotional mess that I can hardly even explain to myself. I'm caught up in my mind as I hurry out the doors of the school once I hear the final bell. I walk down the path behind the school leading to my place, but decide to make a detour to my secret haven so my parents aren't concerned. The pathway is muddy and I almost trip several times. I'm about to reach the clearing when I see him on the edge of the lake. His black hair gleams a navy blue and was taller than anyone I knew. His voice is beautiful as he starts to sing.
"Abyssus exaltavit dabit dolorem, quin me? Ad aliam invenire animam suam uri. O altum tractabile nanti pelago, o princeps caelo flyer tolle quaeso animam meam et laborem. Placere corde meo: tu releva nos. Misericordia et vos nunc similis mei tantum dole. Et faciam tibi sicut me pati.' His voice is like silk and the pain in his words make me want to cry. I feel like I know him... or I used to. I find myself walking towards him when he turns around to face me with a smile. He's beautiful. His bright blue eyes shine like jewels, and his smile is as white as snow. He looks at me with look I've never seen before, like he would do anything for me. I'm tempted to look to see if he's looking at someone who might have shown up behind me.
He walks over to me and touches my cheek. I'm unable to move as he speaks. "Et tandem inventus es amica mea. Sic pulchra es, et omnia mea somnium tecum est." It sounded so beautiful, but I don't know
what he's saying. "What? What are you saying?" I ask. He chuckles. " I will explain one day amor meam. Cras autem videbo vos, et ante sidera incipiunt oriri." He smiles and kisses my hand before disappearing into the woods before I could say goodbye.
I shake my head to clear it and quickly rush home before my parents start to worry.
