Secret Get Away

When I look at this photograph, it brings back the memories of the past I shared with him. I was only twelve years old when I met him.. He had a smile as bright as the sun and eyes that held many thoughts and broken promises. He's changed so much over these 5 years of knowing him. He's moved home after losing his older brother to violence, he is a single father of two young boys and he's an aspiring poet and singer that took me to his secret spot. His secret spot where not too many dare to go. It's dark, secluded, an covered with trees and rocks. He took me there around the time the sun was setting on a cold afternoon.. The trees told his story of his broken heart and his torn down limbs but they still stand strong, showing no sign of coming down anytime soon. The setting sun shined into his eyes and lit them, comforting me and letting me know that it's a safe place, even when you're in an unfamiliar place. It has nothing to do with the setting, it has to do with what you make of it. He kissed me and I knew then that I was in the presence of a mysterious, yet loving guy. I mean, he took me to his Secret Get Away.
