matching brown eyes
across the room, my eyes wandered towards you
shifting of brown eyes that are a mirror's image
i swallow back the regret of years
i soak in the dreaded what ifs
time is fleeting
the years have washed over us
the sound of your words vibrate my existence
i've waited twenty years to hear that sound
the warmth of your embrace
a summer haze for a second
i'm frozen in time
your tears were paralleled to mine
m heart fell into the world's gravity
this moment of seconds
frozen like the winter lakes
watching you walk away
wanting to say more
but being secured by the soundproof vault of my inner pain
the hate is empty inside
i smile because you've learned the value of love
love you give your other kids
a ping of happiness that you became a man for others
goodbye, my blood
goodbye, my stranger
