I Didn't Turn Around

For T.B.

I climbed over hills,
Rolling green with spots of brown.
The sun looks down through leaves of green,
Like your eyes when I look at you.

I didn't turn around,
Because you're the one person I look forward to.
Just like the dry earth
Waits for the rain to fall.

I didn't turn around,
Because I am not going to look in the past.
That is where time is wasted,
and I want that time to be with you.

I climbed over hills,
And I didn't turn around.
I see the stars,
But they shine duller than you.
