He's My Muse

Your Eyes

Tentative, guarded.
Nonetheless your desires still shine deeply from within,
along with past disappointments,
broken dreams,
and the shattered innocence of first loves.
The broken heart scarred by tears,
wracked with confusion.
But hope remains,
remanants of memories of moments that took your breath away.

But most of all,
your eyes tell of your love.
Afraid, I look away,
scared the very depths of my being will repulse you,
frightened you'll see into my soul like I see into yours.

Catching a brief glimpse,
I'm lost.
Locked, I can't help but hold your gaze.
A sense of serenity pervades my soul.
Safety, security, protection.
Eternity.

And all I can do is pray you feel the same when you look into mine.
