Challenge
"He smiled but it didn't seem to touch his eyes..."
The Process
His eyes, a hazel brown
That seemed to light up when I was around.
A smile, a little gap
That it seemed only I could unwrap.
A memory, a small token
Of a first love just awoken.
Her eyes, a cacao brown
That grow deeper when I'm around.
Her smile, a crooked grin
As bewitching as a good girl's sin.
A moment, only pivotal
Of the revival of love and its struggle.
Memories
Old and new
Me and him
Me and you
With the love we had now defiled
In an endless silence, he still smiled
How strange to realize...
It didn't seem to touch his eyes.
