eyes opaque
to those who have
no vision to see,
yet to me, translucent
a clear window into
your beauty deep
to peer upon a heart
as large as oceans
or skies that weep
no more darkness
shall they peer upon
for peer they now
upon hazel eyes my own
the essence of my soul,
pure, heartfelt gentleness
that we both crave, deserve
my own eyes open to yours
your own open to mine
October night where we
both found solace of our souls
