Secret Emeralds

Who said it first?

Was it me or was it you?

When I glanced back to see

you glance back at me

There was something that

stopped me in my tracks.

Something in your eyes

something poetic..stories upon stories..

and I didnt ask you but..

I decided I had to read all of them..In those shimmering green...

Something about them told me more,

Than you or I could ever before..

..People talk about falling..

...I think I crashed and landed in heaven..

Some people call it "love"

and though I'm not sure

what it is quite yet..

It's something I want to explore..

Those shining emeralds

told me a secret of yours..

And I dont even think you

realised that it happened..

So I'll keep it a secret too..

until you find out yourself..

Till then I'll remember those

eyes looking at me as you sat there...

I'll stay still, cross my heart and hope to die,

I'll keep it safe, keep it with me,

That secret..sweet, bittersweet,

That Secret from your emerald eyes...
