To The Girl With Grassy Eyes

To the girl with grass eyes,

To the hope that seems to fill them

As you walk across the asphalt paths,

Your light brown hair swishing behind you

With a confident walk

I could never match.

I have seen you alone and in peace

Finding and searching

But today,

You with your grassy eyes

Were full of wisdom,

Pulsing with interest as

I could only help but wonder

What you cared so much about.

I saw your headphones, then,

Peeking out of your ears

And your head bopping along to the rhythm

Once, twice, thrice,

Until all, I could see was your smile,

Teeth pointing a happiness

Throughout you.

To the girl with glassy eyes,

I wonder if one day I will find my dream

The way you seem to hold on to life, tight

Like you're constantly here,

You're constantly happy,

You're constantly worth it,

And never ready to let go.
