enigma

The boy was a living mystery 

with the universe in his eyes.

His skin darker than the others,

struck between the rules he abides.

The girl was an enigma herself,

a master of disguise,

but you can see it all

if you'd look into her eyes.

Stars were his best friend,

his companion was the dark sky

and she was dreaming

for the wings that could teach her to fly.

She was an avid reader 

read about happiness, sorrow and vain

and he was waiting for someone

to come and reads about his years of pain.

His eyes were depthless and unreadable,

as the deepest and darkest secrets lay inside

and she'd walked through her darkest nights,

trusting the wise old moon as her guide. 

And once they came across,

looked everywhere except at each other,

In this chaotic world

will they ever be able to become a forever?
