&& she's like water
to your parched throat
&& you just want to drink her in
to q u e n c h your thirst
Your eyes linger on her
with that g l o r i o u s red hair
that seems to shimershimershimer
&& mesmerise you
Like a sparkling diamond.
She's b e a u t y
&& s e n s e
&& w o n d e r
what you wouldn't give
just to hold her in your arms
When she walks by
you seem to catch your breath
&& you inhale
the scent of her floral perfume.
You glance around
before you look at her
d e s p e r a t e for no one to see
The longing in your eyes
when you look at her
Again and again
her name is in your head
&& your h e a r t seems to chant
RoxanneRoxanneRoxanne
It's like a delicious melody.
You know she'll never see you
the way you see her
because she is this g l o r i o u s creature
that you could never compare to.
You think all these beautiful thoughts
all in your head
&& never say them out loud
You need to tell her
that to you
she is l a u g h t e r
she is s t r e n g t h
she is p o w e r
You love to hear her laugh
it is the most wonderful pain
to know that she is h a p p y
So happy without you.
You are so a f r a i d
of what she would say
if she knew how you feel
about her
She's always been
that no nonsense kind of girl
the one whose head isn't
easily turned
who doesn't rely on her looks.
Your friends would l a u g h
if they knew
&& it feels so wrong
because her twin brother
is your best friend
&& they are so alike.
None of it matters
you can't stop your heart
especially not when
she is your heart.
So take a deep breath
move past your fears
&& tell her
That she's your w o n d e r b e a m.
I promise I am working on the next chapter.
Things have been a bit hectic on this end.
But I promise the next chapter will be up next weekend.
So sorry.
