Hazelnut




Mislaid dreams
From a misplaced youth
Irrational fears
My favourites truth
A flash of her
Through a foreign smile
Ignites a flame
Left dead for a while.

Held her tightly
Without goodbyes
Everything said
Through her hazelnut eyes
Whispered kindness
And deep drawn sighs
It all was said
Through her hazelnut eyes

Daisy chain necklace
On a beautiful friend
I’ll be there for you
Right to the end
A fragile promise
Smashed by fate
You fell in love
And I was too late.

Whispered kindness
Deep drawn sighs
Infectious smile
Through her hazelnut eyes
Held her tightly
No goodbyes
All was said
Through her hazelnut eyes

Didn’t give you the chance
To turn me down
Should have given you that chance
But now you’re not around
I watched her sleep
In my mind
Kissed her cheek
And left her behind.
