Pretty Words We'll Never Speak.

by vintage darling   Nov 10, 2007


I'm a song away on your radio, so just get in your car and drive.
Let's drive away and away, all we need is words to survive.
I wanna drive you into the corner and kiss you without a sound.
I wanna hold your hand, even with no one around.

So, maybe later today we'll know what we'll do with life as we know it.
Maybe for now, we'll drive down the sunset coast with your love in my locket.
These words are silent, these pretty words we'll never speak.
Don't speak, just looking into those eyes makes my knees go weak.

Autumn has come around, and it has just walked in where you left last.
Nostalgia fills the air, nothing but memories from the past.
I wanna stay this way forever, I wanna lie in the grass forever.
You've got my heart, and we both know it's our great endeavor

Are there adequate words to explain a feeling, knowing, when you're drawn to someone.
It can sum into one word, but all I know is my heart's been stolen.
Now you're in, and you can't get out.
You've looked past the shy smile and brown eyes, you know what I'm all about.

And I can make you say everything that you've never said
When we're together, all there is to look ahead, ahead.
Baby, you're all that's been missing,
Before that, it seems my hearts been too much aching.

But autumn's past and gone.
I can still picture your perfect smile that lives on.
The dull ache in my heart hasn't gone away,
Out of this daydream, I'll wait for that beautiful day.

    Beautiful. The emotions you described here, of getting your heart stolen, were wonderfully said and easy for me to relate with. I loved how the poem flowed effortlessly and the story you told was refreshing. I do think the first sentence was amazing because it truly captured my attention. The last stanza, was a perfect way to end the poem.

    "I wanna stay this way forever, I wanna lie in the grass forever."

    ^I do think the repittion of the word "forever" here throws off the flow.

    "Before that, it seems my hearts been too much aching."

    ^ this sentence did not flow for me.

    Overall the poem was a wonderful joy to read and a beatiful story was told. Well done *5/5*
