Eyes See the Potential for Change
I see your glittering eyes
and the crinkled skin around them.
Your joy is a spark of love
that will soon flame into passion.
How I envy your delight
and the way it motivates you.
I’m inspired to look for
something that brings me happiness.
I see your drowning eyeballs
in a rushing river of tears.
Sorrow is suffocating
what’s left of former happiness.
I want to make it stop.
I want to take away the pain.
I’m inspired to adhere
a smile back onto your face.
When I look into your eyes
they act as magical mirrors
reflecting for me to see
the way the universe knows me.
I‘m a drop of potential
rippling lives like ocean waves.
I’m inspired to bring joy
and find a way to relieve pain.
