The Promise of a Dream

Submitted by Wings of Eternity on Fri, 07/08/2011 - 00:05

In the depths of sky-blue eyes,

I’m entranced, I’m mesmerized.

My heart was captured in a beat

And that alone is quite a feat.

 

Your smile was so soft, sincere,

It banished every single fear.

And as I held your gaze in mine,

It seemed that God had stopped all time.

 

I could not move, nor could I breathe.

How could I bring myself to leave?

{Okay, so I don't usually write fiction. It just dosen't really work out for me. But I was writing today, and I think it turned out okay. Please let me know what you think! I haven't done much editing yet, so forgive the slightly sloppy quality. Thanks!}

Wait Just a Minute

Can you wait just a minute,
and forget right this second,
think back to the past,
and lay down our weapons?

Forget what we've heard
from different sources,
and break down our walls
and knock down the fortress

Put aside the battles
we've lost and won,
work together,
all for one

Forget what's just happened,
start over again,
now is a time
when we can be friends.

Can you wait just a minute,
and let it all slip away?
Can you wait just a minute,
and see the new day?
