A Light In Her Eyes

A light in her eyes;

A smile starting

At the corners

Of her mouth.

My heart fills with jealousy;

For she

Has never

Know pain.

Nothing like I

Have suffered through.

Yes, she has had

Cuts, scrapes, and bruises.

Yet,

No true pain.

She has not

Yet had family pass,

Nor has she ever been alone.

Never yet has she been wrong,

Or burdened

By her regrets.

A light in her eyes;

A smile starting

At the corners

Of her mouth.

She

Has never

Known pain.
