Unintended Love

End of an autumn day

I decided to leave home

I felt a powerful urge to stray

I strolled under the gloam.

I hummed my tune

I sang my song

I gazed at the moon

I walked along.

Nothing was right

Because one thing was wrong

I needed a light

In this world that's so strong.

My light had to be

Somebody to hug

Who will never flee

Be there to snug.

To save my life

In a time of need

In a desperate time

He will always heed.

What I had to find

Was him.

I know I was blind,

But I did not want it.

I was content without

Another human being

For him, I did not scout

Being alone was freeing.

Call me a fool

But boys aren't cool

In the high school

Girls rule, boys drool.

So I kept walking

Searching for anything

Anything but him.

Humming and singing.

Then I saw another figure

Strolling in the darkness

It was him, I was sure

I couldn't help but address.

I said hello

He smiled and waved

He looked into

My eyes and saved.

His eyes were blue

Even in the night

They stood out, true

I'd found my light
