Love Poem: Lingers

Lingers

It began with green eyes

Hair that blew redness

That lingered from somebody else,

A smile that gave rise to a sun

Cheeks that gave the moon its glow,

That lingered on somebody else,

Laughter that was undeniable,

Words that were so memorable,

That lingered in somebody else,

Until one remarkable night,

A kiss you gave, the face you made,

You now linger, in me forever.
