Because of a boy
Her eyes... brown, wide, full of unspoken words
Her laugh... dull, empty, full of hurt
And him, his oceans are overflowing
His heart exploding with a happiness so great
His mind open wide to new ideas, to new things, to her
She lives a little more, her smile greater than its ever been
This boy... so new to her life
This boy... like fire to ice
Her pain melts. Her darkness becomes day
Why?
Because of this boy
Because of her dreams with him
She sees new opportunities she never saw before
She has new doors that have never been opened
New paths that have never been walked
She was sheltered in her own mind
And now?
She she paints the walls colors of blues, greens, reds, and yellows as she walks
She is alive.....
