The Sky's Eyes


She said, “open the sky,” And that's just what I did, Even though impossibility slid Avaricious fingers past my eye. All I needed was the sight of her eyes: Those beautiful brown orbs of earth set against the sky. Maybe that's why Such a request occurred; Maybe her eyes (those beautiful brown orbs of earth Set against the sky)— The other sides— Asked inside Her head, “Open the sky,” Because they knew her, Her eyes, And maybe even I Belong together Someplace inside the sky. So, the sunroof came undone, Letting in the sun, Yielding to my will, Knowing she's the one.
