Stranger

A Poem by Vanny

I fell in love by accident today
Walking alone along the market place
He burned the sorrow away
With one look from his eyes of hazel gray
I thought surely he'd soon forget my face...

The days are sullen, unchanged
Life still broken, heart still chained
I ran down the hall to grab the mail
Saw a note lying on the front doorstep,
And this is what it read:

"I saw you in the market the other day,
and to be frank you quite took my breath away.
You weren't very hard to track down.
I broke bad and just asked around.
By wild luck I found out your name.
Gotta love a small town.
Meet me in the secret garden no sooner than the sun goes down."

The sun was nearly tangerine
The scene by the secret garden, so serene
When I saw you leaning against the oak
For you were the dagger hidden beneath the cloak
Waiting to pierce my heart...
