• "His Eyes"


    His eyes,
    deeper than the darkest depths
    of any ocean
    capture mine
    drowning me in
    helplessly

    taking away all oxygen
    greedy and pained
    wordless messages
    enscrolled on his gaze
    steadying with my heartbeat

    returning bittersweet memories
    now lingering
    and slowly flooding
    breaking his blank stare
    falling ever so quietly

    embracing my hands
    and with the most
    enrichingly, elegant script
    etched his silent words
    into my open arms
