Glances stolen
Smiles exchanged
Gears set to rollin
My how times have changed
**************************
**************************
Years gone by
Like grains of sand
You've walked side by side
Afraid to hold hands
**************************
**************************
You see two girls
Across the plaza
To the music they dance
In each other's arms they twirl
**************************
**************************
Four sparkling eyes
Two sets of lips
Meet and join
For an innocent kiss
**************************
**************************
You glance at your lover
And take her hand
No better time
To make a stand
**************************
**************************
To many years
Spent in this box of Pandora's
Now open the lid
The world lay before us
**************************

This is supposed to be about and older lesbian couple that is finally coming out and learning to display thier affection for each other after growing up in a world where it was "wrong"
I really liked the flow of this piece. It feels like a dance to read it. I also really liked the way you used words to create the sense of movement and closeness at the same time. I think you conveyed the message very well. Wonderful poem =)
