Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

Before she went off
having told you

she was seeing
someone else

you wanted to gather
her words in your hands

and jumble them up
to make a different

form of words
and a different message

and as you watched her
go back toward her home

you thought of the first kiss
she gave you

and that bright gaze
in her blue eyes

when she saw you
for the first time

and you realized
that you had had

your love chances
and had blown them away

and looking up
you saw

she had gone from sight
but years later

when hearing the wind blow
on the window

you see her still
in dreams at night.
