HIM:
She occupied his mind for the rest of the day,
Consuming all his thoughts like a black hole.
She was always there.
She made him smile,
His eyes finally showed a glow
Of interest
In life.
He felt himself falling into
Intricate love with her
Faster than the speed of light.
He knew he was going too fast.
Knew that he'd eventually crash and
Burn.
He knew She would need to take her
Time.
But he didn't care.
He craved her eyes
Her shy timid stance
Stuck between sprinting away from everything and staying to see the
Outcome.
He ached to get the slightest glimpse
Of her lips.
The way they could transform
From thin, anxious, unreadable
To mischievous, bursting with life,
With witty thoughts just
Itching to escape the confines
Of those beautiful trap doors.
What are you thinking??? You learned her name just 10 minutes ago!!
It was too late;
He felt himself slipping slowly out of reach
From reality.
*********************************
HER:
She stared at her paper,
Trying to decipher the blurred
And jumbled words that everyone else
Read perfectly.
It was him.
He occupied her mind,
Writhing and twirling into
Distorted poems
And beautiful words.
His stunning green eyes
Stood out in the darkness behind her lids.
A smile slowly spread across her face,
Causing a sharp intake of silent breath
All around her.
Her smile lit up the room;
And could cause anyone's spirits to be
Lifted immensely.
His opaque black hair
Contrasted with those green eyes;
The color of fresh spring grass
Freshly coated with dew drops.
God, those penetrating eyes.
She felt as if he truly saw within herself,
Gazed upon her darkest corners
That she tried to avoid,
And still accepted her with open arms.
She needed to gaze into those eyes,
To find and fix his broken pieces
That he must claim are intact.
She longed for those eyes to touch her;
His gaze sent a splintering shiver
Up and down her spine.
A red shadow rushed to her cheeks as she imagined his eyes
And all the unsaid words he bit back with
Reluctant force.
She knew it was probably stupid to think this when she just discovered his name
10 minutes ago.
Yet, as she painted words that flowed from
The depths of her swirling mind,
She knew he felt the same way.
