To Write Your Face Across This Page
How do I write your face across this page with nothing but an 8 week old memory ?
I want to make your eyes appear
Like two green kaleidoscopes
That always knew how to say I love you
At just the right times.
But I'll never find the words..
I remember you in every shade of strawberries and cream
And peaches with cinnamon on your cheeks.
Pink roses bloomed between us
Between fingers, necks, and lips
But I only have black and white..
I want to make your eyes appear
Like two green kaleidoscopes
That always knew how to say I love you
At just the right times.
But I'll never find the words..
I remember you in every shade of strawberries and cream
And peaches with cinnamon on your cheeks.
Pink roses bloomed between us
Between fingers, necks, and lips
But I only have black and white..

with such a common emotion among anyone who's had love or a crush, (especially one that wants to do the other justice with art). that second stanza is so sweet and well put together... you just keep impressing. well done, again, Ava. [:

and good. Well expressed in its terseness. I personally would have liked this piece to have gone on longer.

Beautiful, emotionally-connected and flourishing with savage longing and yet reserved isolation. Well done.
