Love was never as alluring Until its gaze drew an emerald shade And like arrows shots ensuring From my memory they wouldn´t fade. And from such a strike There is no hope to defend No bastion wall as sturdy Or polished shield can hope deflect. Yet your stare so piercing Went through my flesh with  ease My heart laid bare and empty And now with hope its filled. A quest I will make to find Your green emerald eyes My life maybe forfeit, yet I must try For before your sight, I never felt so alive.

Love was never as alluring
Love was never as alluring Until its gaze drew an emerald shade And like arrows shots ensuring From my memory they wouldn´t fade. And from such a strike There is no hope to defend No bastion wall as sturdy Or polished shield can hope deflect. Yet your stare so piercing Went through my flesh with  ease My heart laid bare and empty And now with hope its filled. A quest I will make to find Your green emerald eyes My life maybe forfeit, yet I must try For before your sight, I never felt so alive.
A short one tonight, but I like how it ended up, specially the first stanza, I´ve been reading Petrach lately and that man was a master, so I think in a way I tried to replicate him, not that I compare of course, but I wanted to give it a shot
