Sweet Nothings
by Nicole Adel
Young love stands before me
Lemon yellow hair, messy and gorgeous
Sea foam eyes; get lost within them
Like being lost at sea
He looks, no, stares into me
My chiffon dress flows
Breezes from the sea
Waves clang against shores
Emotions young love evokes
Pictures, images, ideas
We frolic in the sand
Lemon turns sandy
Still messy and gorgeous
Burgundy cashmere sweater
Ringing in my ears
Aching in my heart
Whispers
Young love is gone
