Gray mist
swirls in the air,
settles on my eyelashes
and smudges my world,
hazily distorts all things
surrounding me.
and us.
Hands entwined,
making our way across
a picturesque autumn campus,
in-step and in-sync.
Smiles radiate
and mirror the shine
in your eyes.
and mine, also.
Breathe deep,
sweet.
Take in the scent of my hair,
the curve of me
pressing against you.
Puppy love,
adoration but not too many
promises.
You make me forget me,
and I like that.
