Arctic Eyes

1 min read

By Rebekah Sherman

The whites of your eyes 

I see behind, 

The echoes of a story gale. 

An artic sea 

Lays before me 

And suddenly, I begin to wale. 

Remnants of our sunny days 

And tropical waves 

Have long since been decayed. 

As I stand 

With outstretched hand, 

I wait expectantly. 

Giving you the chance, 

Would you simply grasp 

This limited opportunity? 

So few words 

Are needed to cure 

The deep wounds within thee. 

Your artic eyes 

Is all I need 

To help heal my bleeding heart. 

No more the cold, bitter days, 

If only you would stay 

And allow yourself to heal as well. 

As the sun meets the earth, 

So too our souls connect 

By a few mere words. 

Our relationship is restored, 

Once an enemy, but now no more! 

We are like a picture on display. 

The whites of your eyes 

I see behind 

The gleam of a ray of sunshine.
