you with the sad eyes
chocolate brown
with flecks of gold
almond shaped
with a dull sheen
windows
shuttered and closed
what is hidden
in the fathomless depths
stars and galaxies
that tell their own stories
of hopes and dreams
formed in innocent minds
memories and images
that weave their own tale
of a past long forgotten
and a future never to be
if i took the time
would you let me in?
if i listened
would you tell me why?
you with the sad eyes
look so much like me...
