Chalk dust memories and crayon scrawled stories

 


Your eyes

mesmerise me.

So much to see.

So many stories.

Tantalising glimpses

at a world I wish to be.

 

Every slight change of shade

that shimmers gracefully

across the irises,

every past life that glimmers in the

flowering part of your memory,

every rose petal kiss that sparkles

behind every smile,

every challenge that life

has laid out for you.

Every mountain peak,

that you've conquered.

Every long mile you've wandered.

Every whispered word

you've ever wished to speak.

Every longing question

you've pondered.

Every tear that has leaked out

and leapt to the ground beneath.

 

I see the smile reach

out to them, arms wide open.

As you look wide eyed upon

the world you have created from

chalk dust memories

and crayon scrawled stories.

I see the look

hidden from view, just a glance

and then eyes duck

behind lids shut tight,

but the eyes don’t have a chance

to hide the love

you have flowing in you,

and I wish to dance in this love

like raindrops

falling into dew-draped flowers

and I want to swim in the flood

like a river that devours the land.

So please take my hand.

 

The warmth that encircles you,

smiling through your veins,

reaches out to everyone.

Fingertips of heat

to defrost the coldest heart,

to pour out for those that

share it all with you.

In those eyes

I see the seas part,

I see the skies fall

and the ground rumbles.

I see thunder and rainbows,

I see a world of colour

painting over the greyscale,

and it colours my love so perfectly.
