Chapter 12: Summer's gold in brown eyes

Chaos In My MindWords: 2347

Holiday in Italy

It was a summer night

I made some friends,

Had fun and stuff

'Till you came in my sight

My feet feelt sandy beach

My eyes looked to my right.

My heart beat fast as you approached

And my mind took flight.

Your hair a bit curly and dark as the night

I felt a cold breeze on my skin

And your smile completely enchanted me

More than I'd ever been

You talked to me and said your name

I told you mine as well

But after looking in your eyes

I'll never be the same

Your eyes like chocolate were, so brown

I admired the rest of the night

I felt like I was gonna drown

My heart, it felt so right

We talked and shared some wine

And then you touched my hand.

The moment felt so right

As if it was planned.

Some others already had left

We still stayed there till midnight

In front of us were crashing waves

Above us silver moon light

I had to go, I told you all

I felt so fucking small

When you stood up and walked me home

You are so very tall

We walked and talked alone

Our eyes locked in a trance.

Your embrace was so warm

My heart begann to dance.

We stood there, it felt like eternity

And when I looked in your eyes

They looked so deeply back into mine

Oh, was I really wise?

You hugged me then, I hugged you back

And didn't wanna let go

You held me tight

Oh, don't let go

It was the perfect night

Your hands so warm and strong but soft

So tight they held my waist

Your lips were talking, your voice so deep

Oh please give me a taste

If ever there was a perfect moment

To be somebody's first kiss

You had the opportunity

Which both of us did miss

We stayed in a hug for some minutes longer

Still not wanting to let go

Even your scent was perfect,

Your movements so careful and slow

But then I had to leave you

I had to go inside

One last time you hugged me

Before vanishing back into the night

The memory of that night

Will always stay with me

The way you made me feel

So happy, close and free

I think about you sometimes

And wonder where you are

Do you still remember me

Or have I faded far?

Maybe someday we'll meet again

Underneath the same moonlight

And we can reminisce about

That perfect summer night

But until then I'll hold onto

The memory of your embrace

And the way you made me feel

When your hands touched my face

It was a perfect night,

A memory to behold.

I'll never forget you and that sight

Of brown eyes like summer's gold.
