Love Poem: Eyes

Eyes

Rough

            Flying fast

No obstacles hindering its path

            Except a face

That face of yours

 

Brown eye

            Blue eye

Mismatched irises

            They grow wide

As the rocket comes near

 

It connects

            Snapping the fragile supports

Knocking the pale face aside

            Crimson flying everywhere

The face fallen low

 

Shocked eyes

            Fearful eyes

Confused expression

            You do not understand

What has happened

 

You trusted it

            You trusted me

The one who sent

            The flying death

 

Those eyes

            Your eyes

Now untrusting

            Unforgiving

And yet so beautiful

 

Fearful

            Panicking

I run

            Far away

Retreating

 

My eyes

            Scared eyes

I don not understand

            What I’ve done

 

Will you ever forgive me?

            I have broken you

You’re my angel

            Can I reach you?

 

Sad eyes

            Demon eyes

The tears stream

            My heart aches

I want to be in your arms

 

Your touch

            My body

All I want

            Is to see you again

 

 

Years have passed

            Have you forgiven me?

I destroyed your love

            I destroyed my heart

Why have I done this?

            Why have I killed you?

 

I never meant any harm

            Please forgive me

I loved you

            And I will love you forever more

 

Goodbye


            And sorry.
