Your eyes
were capsized
from the
moment that
I first saw
them,
long ago
broken
shallow
pieces
without
depth or
substance.
abandoned
left motionless
barely showing
a glimmer
of the light
behind them.
and so
I sit
and wait
with any
kind of
hope to
help
keep you
afloat.
you were
the woman
barely audible
in the
coffee line
before me.
and I all
of a sudden
was the
witness
to all of
the pirates
that had
left your
life in
shambles
over the
years,
and in that
moment
we were
one.
