My Entry

Ranada sits in her dark musty chamber studying for her test.
She met her heart's desire in the next room.
He recently returned a prestigious scholar.
He left as a young lad and came back as a warlock.

Ranada has a test of witchcraft in front of the class.
She hopes not to embarrass herself in front of her beau.
She knows he will be there in the dark cave
Just knowing his closeness will rise the strain.

When she knew him before, they were close friends.
Now that they are grown, they feel the connection.
Damien came over to help her study.
But Ranada said she needed to rest.

Everytime he saw her his eyes would sparkle
she wanted so much to spend time together
Her heart would pound everytime he neared
he would visit often in hopes of an innocent kiss

Her yearnings for closeness were so strong
She knew when the test was over they would bond.
Her mom noticed the stress in her daugher
Ranada told her she need not worry

At the age of fifteen, Ranada was too young
Just knowing Damien loved her was enough to wait
until her parents told her she was allowed to date.
