Pleasant Surprises

By OnceUpon

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You caught me off guard, And showed me that pasts Are really never forgotten. I was not out to show Or impress anybody, Just to talk And relax a little, With no thoughts worth thinking Too long about. Then you arrived and I tried To be me And tried to be you as well. And for once a subtle frame Shattered in the blink of hopes. So now here I am Living an unthinkable future Only a few days ago. Pleased.
