Two Green Eyes

Two Green Eyes

A Chapter by Dean

 

Two green eyes stare at me from the opposite side of a car’s backseat,

The shadows hide her well, behind the curtains of despair

And all I can do now is clench my fist and look away ashamed.

My friend says to smile, relax and caress her skin,

But all I can feel at the moment is anger and danger,

The teeth in my mouth just scrape against my lips

And metallic blood drips slowly on the inside of my throat.

 

This body is strange when I look through these eyes,

A heart that is not my own beats for someone else

But for a moment, an isolated moment

It skips a beat, and beats for someone else,

For my two green eyes that stare in the distance,

For a heart that I stubbornly insisted to hold

And to my decadent despair I broke it clumsily.

 

Two emerald eyes close for a moment and I wrap my fingers around her knees,

The fist is still clenched, my eyes stare out into the distant night

Desperately trying to remember a moment when I felt calm,

When failures were nothing I needed to worry about,

When it was me and my little girl, ready to face the world…

I cannot remember a moment so true,

I cannot remember my life before you.
