They Were Lost

A pair of pretty eyes and a yellow dress and he was lost.
A mess of blond hair falling over her sun kissed shoulders and he was lost.
A bleeding nose and contagious laugh and he was lost.

A broken thumb and boyish smile and she was lost.
A free soul and chipped tooth and she was lost.
A few years older and wiser and she was lost.

He enjoyed her sense of humor.
He liked the way she said his name.
He could never get enough of her sadness when she looked at his hands.

She loved the way he looked at the stars an early morning.
She loved his focused eyes when he drove her to places she wanted to go.
She loved him even if she wasn't sure he loved her back.
