I See You


Kiss on your collar bone

& tell you I love you

Paint the universe on your back

& I saw the North Star in your eye.

But beneath your deep chcolate almond eyes

I could see the hurt & the pain you went through

to get to this moment

all of the lies

& the scars

& the battles you fought

I see them

but more importantly I see you

I see the real you

Unfortunatley the others never saw through your almond eyes

but I do

I see you.
