If It Were Perfect.

Those dark green eyes,
Which pierce both our souls,
And their voices shout at the top of their lungs,
Crying to the world
It's not fair
That what we have, is too true
To be so perfect...
but it's not...

If it were perfect,
I'd be the first person
To whisper in your delicate ears
"Good morning love"
And I'll be holding your fingers
Throughout the entire day
And fear that i may die,
If I don't feel their touch
for just one second.

If it were perfect,
Your long, soft hair would be
Constantly and gently caressing my face
As we both meander aimlessly
Under the trees in the park
As the pink sakura petals
Fall from the branches above
And entangle themselves in our hair...

    I wouldn't say it ends abruptly, it just stops as though not finished. Your words painted a vision of a young couple in love and just starting out together, portrayed beautifully. An excellent job here.

    I really like this piece. It was a joy to read. I think it may end a little abruptly.
    I love Sakura trees! They are totally my favourite!
    Good job, good luck, and keep up the great writing!

    I can't really tell ya if it's abruptly because I don't know what that means. I don't like mushy poems. The middle sounds the mushy-est. lol, should i give you clappys?

    Sachin- it doesn't end too abrubtly- BUT I WANT MORE! Wow, this is so beautiful. So intimate... full of love.

    The thing is, by writing this- it makes it perfect. Understand what I'm saying? The words you used fit beautifully. It was smooth and had me to the brink of tears. I can't even decide on which part I like the best. I'm serious- this is just simply "Perfect"

    So beautiful.

    I wish it was for me!

    Throughout the entire day
    And fear that i may die,
    If I don't feel their touch
    for just one second."
