Curtains

Your eyes are always so crinkled

School must drain you so

Always barely perceiving

They were disheartening with

melancholy in tow

I'll never forget the night I realized

your eyes

No longer creased, no longer apathetic

So round, so alive

In this moment I realized that I

had seen them before

I saw a glimpse today

 

Maybe it's too much to think that

I made your eyes everything

Everything I needed to be alrite

I kissed your mouth that night

A person like you could be good for me
