In this entire lonely world,
I know where I�d be�
I�d be lying
On a hill, far from light or care,
Wrapped in a blanket of stars,
Safe in your arms,
I�d map out every muscle,
Every freckle,
Every line in your face,
And commit it all to memory,
So that on nights
When I�m all alone,
I can remember.
Your strength is unmatched,
Your muscles so hard and defined;
Your gorgeous eyes pierce my soul,
Those deep sapphire pools drowning my every thought,
Until all there is, is you;
Your handsome face and bright smile are unsurpassable
By any,
And your arms,
So strong and warm,
That even if I wished it,
The Jaws of Life couldn�t tear me away.
There, I�d be content to remain,
In those arms forever,
Being protected,
Feeling loved.
Could this sanctuary,
So inviting and gentle,
Ever be more than a dream?
A wish?
Could I ever belong there?
Maybe wishes do come true�
My junior year, this was my literature contest entry. It made it to the regional finals.
