You'd Have to Promise

Shaking hands and shadowed pavement.

If you were mine,
you'd have to promise
to read my poetry.

You'd have to promise
to take in my dreams
and my pain,
laid out before you
while my hands shake, and
your eyes,
the green and brown hazel,
the tidal wave of bursting summer that is your eyes,
measure the meaning of my words.

And if you were mine,
you'd have to promise
not to talk about it.

Because the gentle dance
of crisp, red and yellow tears
drifting on the shadowed pavement
while we sit,
I, waiting for the moon
and you,
gentle fingertips grazing my letters,
is our moment.

You'd have to promise.

It drew a good warmth out of meh. I enjoyed :3 but one question. Brown and green soo? Hazel eyes or Heterochromia? Haha just wondering. You'd have to read my poetry. I like that :3

[Katie Alexander]

Oh my gosh I hadn't considered of people taking that as HeterochromiaXD That will be changed thank youXD

[Kai Rollins]

Haha just wondering. I'm sure not everyone (or many or that matter) will come to that conclusion. :3 besides that. It really was a lovely read
