Broken Blind
Through your eyes
of lapis lakes,
the window to your soul,
I break.
Shards of tears
illuminate:
the mourning
in your spirit’s wake.
I rake the grains
with gentle hands,
sifting words
to understand,
listening
as silence
spans
The distance from
your heart
to land.
I speak your hope
’til realized,
paint the pitch
with sunrise skies,
in Braille
I write
what beauty lies,
until
you see it
through your eyes.
Am I Worth Your Love?
Through your eyes...
do you see a girl
worth living for?
Through your eyes...
do you see a flower
worth growing?
Through your eyes...
am I worth the time
to wait?
Through your eyes...
am I a beautiful
goddess worth fighting for?
I want to be something
(anything)
to you.
I want to be worthy
of your gaze
(please look at me).
I want to see what you see
(I want to see if I’m worth love)
through your eyes.
Through your eyes, I want to see
If what you see is really me
The scars hidden beneath a smile
Do you know I'm crying, all the while
Are you ignoring all the signs
Avoiding mountains we can't climb
Will you really take the time
To see my heart; I hope this time
Can you grasp what's at my core
How I'm not like the girl next door
How I've failed, although I tried
See me; no filter; through your eyes
Life
Through your eyes the fog is lifted
Sifted, Gifted
Transformation to animation
A cycle of water
Fog, condensation, air, water, boiling
Freezing heart of despair
Hear the cries turn inward
Anger in shadows
Darkness guides
Light ignites
inside hope
Now it flows through
Old cycles die, New cycles revive
Dreams are life
Live inside
Dreams unreal, Now alive
Fantasy through your eyes
Through your eyes
@FiaA
Through your eyes
they see happiness
they see love
they see creativity
Through your eyes
I know better
I see past the scars
that fake joy
Through your eyes
I stare deep into your heart
I want to mend it
I want to end it
The sorrow lodged in our throats
I want to help you
but I struggle the same
two hearts beating the same
one slows
the other turns to stone
and cracks
and chips
falls into pieces
Through your eyes
(I hope Free Verse is okay)
Just Because....
Through your eyes
it seems truly wise
to replace a sniggering scoff
with a heartfelt laugh.
I begin where I once left off
Through your eyes
I warm to thaw ingrown ice.
Putting back things once broken,
my heart reaches to open.
Through your eyes
Everything looks nice
Less jaded, less cynical
I catch an actual smile
My world's worth the while
through the rose colored optical
Through your eyes
I no longer despise
or over flaws agonize
Everything’s clear and perceptible
I’m accepting, therefore acceptable,
just because
I see
through your eyes.
To See Me
Through your eyes, I'm innocent,
and could probably do no wrong.
Through my eyes,
I'm surviving, building my life to be strong.
Through your eyes,
surviving is a natural thing to do.
Through my eyes,
I'm struggling hoping I will get through.
Through your eyes,
my teardrops flow downward to fade away.
Through my eyes, my strength is questioned every day.
Through your eyes,
strength could be in the tears I drop.
Through my eyes,
the pain in me has never taken the time to stop.
Through your eyes,
my innocence shows no tale of lies.
Through my eyes,
I depend on what comes through your eyes.
