I see a girl
who wants to be
loved more than
anything.
I see a child
looking back at me
with wide, adoring eyes.
So young, so hopeful.
I see a woman
smiling a cracked grin,
hair blown back and
a happy, naive heart.
I see a teenager,
lost + confused,
angry and frustrated
yet do full of unnerved optimism.
I see two green eyes
staring back at me
with such a tender curiosity
and slight satisfaction.
I see a girl,
and the reflection bounces back.
It smacks me
right upside the head.
I see ambition,
no motivation.
I see love, lust,
lots of confusion.
I see images of
brown eyes,
strong embraces
and interlacing fingers.
I see a blue eyed girl,
tears streaming
down her perfect face
as she raises the blade.
I see a pair, a couple
being ying and yang,
complete equilibrium
in each other's souls.
Two green eyes
contain so many
memories, so many
secrets.
