I saw you today
And it felt like forever.
Your eyes are like a poet's,
Everything fades when you're around
And I need you to know it.
I saw you today
And it felt like forever.
Your eyes are like a poet's,
Everything fades when you're around
And I need you to know it.
what do I do when the leaves are dead?
what do I do with this road ahead?
i'll walk the stretch, and clear the way,
but my feet won't move today.
what do I do when these trees are surreal?
I cried in silence again.
The tears streamed down
And made puddles on my carpet floor
I'm lying on again.
I watched the minutes change again.
the bus driver glared at me
like i was a sin to society;
he called me a fag—under his breath,
and i got in my seat like nothing happened.

Beautiful poem, Izzy, and to think you created it from mixing and matching words from the poems found in Anthology 15! Thanks for joining us at YWP in Burlington today!
Of course! I had a blast! :)
