Love is Leaving

Sunshine glows upon her face,
and lace from her elegant dress
says nothing less than perfection
while her protection is always near.
Here, now, her features shine,
intertwining every bit of the joy
this boy emits towards her,
his lure becoming much to handle.
Soft words and tiny whispers give
reason to live until the next day,
because any other way would be dark,
and stark distance would lead them astray.
When the wind comes in harsh, bitter strings,
when things have become less than desired,
and the mire has been crossed by Love,
perhaps beloved rain will dance on her face.
It is her place to decide,
because the steady tide is about to roll in
and win the heart she knew is hers,
all while she is immersed in cold.
