The two who live
In oblivious companionship
Seeing each other every day
Never thinking it could be more than friendship
She smiles at him with bright blue eyes
He returns it back his eyes flashing bright
Neither knowing what could happen
If they could flip this light
He thinks of her frequently
A delicate flower who shouldn’t be hurt
He watches the others use her
And break her heart
She cries the tears that he stops
Telling her not to worry
That everything will be alright
Secretly burning with fury
He wants her to be nothing but happy
Her smile brings him life
She is unaware of how he feels
He is planning to tell her
She comes to him one last time
Her eyes filled the rejected look
She doesn’t know what to do
Now that she’s been broken one more time
He comforts her and holds her tight
Once more saying everything is alright
He knows now is not the time to say it
But his heart screams out for the right
She stares at him in haunted shock
A ghost of a smile appearing on her face
She dries up her tears and pulls away
Confusion melded in her brain
He bites his lip and shuts his eyes
A mistake too big to be forgiven
He knew he took a step too far
And he prepares for her rejection
She notices the down face
A look of utter fright
That is written on this boy’s face
And she wonders why she didn’t know
He doesn’t hear any hurtful reply
He peeks beyond his eyelashes
She is still staring his way
But not at him
She doesn’t know what to think
What to say or what to do
Trapped in complete and utter silence
When he starts to fall to the ground
Her knees grow weak and shaky
He falls on the ground
Sitting there stupefied
No hope or faith being found
She feels her knees give in
And her arms wrap around
Closing her eyes to fight back tears
Embracing him in a hold
He feels her arms around him
Her look of saddened sympathy
While he stares shocked ahead
A smile growing in his heart
She didn’t know what to feel
Or how to play and act
She had forgotten what she had felt
When they’d first met
He waited for her to catch notice
Of his eyes on hers
Like they always did
In their very first days
She opened her eyes and looked at him
His eyes looking straight into hers
She couldn’t help but to smile
And feel safe for a while
The two who were lost
Had now found one another
To live in happiness
Forever and more
