Heartbeat

There is always a first time for everything.

"Who are you?"

Did you not whisper those?

Under playful shadows of the Willow,

The sky closing down to dusk

While the wind howls in unison.

"Let's walk together..."

A lullaby

Drifting and swallowed 

By the beating music of heart

And splashing crimson of Love.

"Until tomorrow then."

Promises, pinky swear

Eyes flickering

As you stare straight into mine

A fleeting memory - forever it will mark.

Author's Note

Hello! >_<

You know that sensation when you had your first time?
Well, especially when you meet someone that makes your heart go 'doki-doki?'

Any feed backs? I will be glad if you could share them. :)

i was pinky sworn with a couple loves...but they must have had their toes crossed...false promises...but that first time is always significant...and we believe...as we grow older and become jaded---we have trouble believing...
but i like the hopeful mood of this ...the time of innocence and "maybe this is it?" feeling.

and i like those separate lines...a poem within the poem.

Beautifully penned and the imagery is profoundly expressed. Love, the most beautiful yet controversial emotion. And you glorified it by your pen. :)

I've never referred to it as doki-doki, : ) but I know what you mean and your poems expresses that feeling nicely.

[TheMalady]

Haha, you're definitely right. I just referred to as doki-doki. Aw geez... Thanks again. I just like to express them through simple words. However, thank you very much for taking your time on reading my work. I really appreciate it. :)
