The boy with the story
Known by all but unread by everyone
Black eyes met like a first impression to kill
It meant nothing
But it intrigued girls with skirts and circle glasses

Innocence is bliss
And ignorance is uncanny
The girls twirled their hair
And held their breathe
Ignorant to the fact
That she was the only one holding
And innocent compared to those she thought were

Jumbled words and small smirks
Eyes red with tears and loud
They fell
Both too intriguingly separate
And yearning for that to change

The boy with the story had but one thing in common
With the girl holding her breathe
A sense of hopelessness
Being two of one kind
Like two unread books
Waiting to let go and let sunlight hit the pages
