earl grey

A Poem by sea lily

there was a boy,
who travelled from over the sea
with wicked eyes,
and a rogue charm.
fixed his father's van
couldn't have been
older than twenty-three.
made a mark on me,
over the coffee bar.
drank earl grey tea.
had a smile
that set his face free.
didn't leave plates.
i am just a girl,
but he made sure to leave
with a backwards turn.

this held lot of mystery to me being so short
but I liked what you put down in words.

Thanks for sharing.
