Eyes that Stop Time


The Serpentine road winds endlessly,
Adrenaline rushes in my body, passion fills my mind
Even if the road ends, the best is still ahead.
Everything paused when I first saw your eyes,
My heart races when we meet gazes
I admire poetry with adulation —  only with you.
 
Amber shades glisten in enchanting waves,
Your familiar gaze makes me fall for you
Butterflies flutter in my stomach exhilarated.
As I scribble your name on pieces of paper
When I meet other girls my mind returns to you
My nightmares revolve around the fear of losing you.

The stars glimmer in an ecstatic glow above us
I find you shining in the gleam of our twilight
Seasons may end and shift  but I am still me-
When our lips unite, I feel as if the galaxy is exploding
You say you love me most, and I can't control my feelings. 

The beating of your heart is so melodic
A tune that sends vibrations down my spine
Inside of you, is me, I am finally home.
