brown eyed girl


a message for the brown eyed girls.

yes, her eyes are blue.

yes, every love song is about them

every song compares them to the sea.

but, you? you have eyes of amber and onyx.

your eyes are the gold that people are

desperately trying to pull from the earth.

her eyes may hold the depth of the ocean

but your eyes hold the magnitude of a black hole.

your eyes carry a weight too heavy for even

the ocean to sweep away into its abyss.

your eyes are anything but ordinary.
