Stray

So this one is one of my popular poems! I wrote it when I was in 10th Grade!




With startled eyes, I look and see,
Curls of brown in front of me.

Their hazel shade, it draws me in,
Now where was I? Where have I been?

A binding scent, I’m hypnotized,
A dream of love is synthesized.

She turns around, I see her face,
I hear it now, my heart, it says,

Look into those hazel eyes,
Feel your soul, see how it flies.

Then someone calls and I snap out,
My mind in awe, my heart in doubt.

And I shall let it stay that way,
I’ll let it feel, I’ll let it stray.

Let it think of what could be,
Let it bring a smile to me.
