Happiness finds its use in
the sparkle of your green eyes,
shining anxious insecurity
that knots my tongue.
But the changing of
the season
gives you reasons
to doubt what you
thought you meant
you knew about
everything we had
together on our backs,
staring under the stars,
professing our
love with a cheesy grin and
heartbeats left untamed
for a future that rests
between your lips.
