Altered

Altered~ Hayden-his discovery!!

Hayden's POV

I rolled out of bed, thinking nothing but those hazel eyes that seem to greet me with nothing but wonder. I've never been looked at so kindly and knowingly but only a wanting or just a plain old "Your popular, let's hang out!" But she seemed so kind and like she just wanted to be my friend for me. She looked at me, I mean really looked at me wanting to know more, just like I did to her. I felt happy and confused all at once. Not being able to be happy in awhile really got to me. I picked up the piece of paper I snucked into my pocket from Penelope's journals from my nightstand. A poem in loopy handwriting was written on it.

I didn't lie to her about me loving poetry; Edgar Allen Poe and Ralph Waldo Emerson were my favorite poets and writers.But also how I didn't know how to write everything from my head nor my heart from there to a piece of paper. I read the lines over and over in my head mesmerized each time:

As the last rose petal falls to the ground

I can't help but wonder

Will life keep on going

Even after I go under?

Not knowing what will come frightens me the most

Because even now I am forever lost

Lost in the forever maze

Will I fly like a bird?

Or  be the flower that blooms everyday when the sun hits?

Or maybe, just maybe be the girl I once was

The girl buried inside me

But I will never be neither of those natures

Because I am forever lost

Lost in the forever maze

I can't help but think, that I feel the same way. In ways that I can't even explain to myself. How even now your not able to be everything and how can you, in the time needed to be, there. A world that's suppose to be everything and anything. I memorize the poem by heart and then set off to take a shower. I dress into jeans and a dark blue T-shirt on and head downstairs to where my car keys and backpack wait for me. I kiss my mom goodbye and head out the door.

I think about how today I'm going to actually talk to her in Chemistry today and not as shy as I did yesterday which was unbelievably embarrassing. But when I saw her I saw things that I only see in the mirror, a pain kept underneath but trying to keep moving on. Her beauty was one thing but the way she looked at everyone else was different, the way she looked at me was different. I wanted, I needed her. She made me feel me even before we even knew each other and we still don't but we did. Both of our knowing eyes knew.
