About a girl

Poetry about a love that was not meant to be

A girl of such great beauty
The world has seldom seen,
With eyes that melt the icy look
From a boy who's only seventeen.

I know not my emotions,
So blurry as the oceans.
But dusk to dawn transforms,
Enlightens all of the distortions.

And as the Sun beats down upon me
With the strength of new dawn's light,
I dream about you more and more:
Your lovely eyes, your smile -- so bright!

The sound of waves running aground
And birds singing along
Can only make this better still:
They made me realise how I feel.

And there you are, dear Natalie,
So close and yet, so far.
But in my Universe you'll always be
An everlasting star.
