#starryeyes
starry eyes—
so ethereal,
so heavenly,
so innocent.
i wonder
what i can do
to get your attention,
to get you to listen.
all i know
is that those starry eyes
forever
shall be mine.

#23 | 31 Poems for August
They laughed and criticized at my starry eyes.
But suddenly stopped when I rose like the morning sun.
So now I humbly thank God for all that He has done.
In a world burdened and ravaged by wars that seem to go on for forever.
I try to find peace inside myself and pray to become someone better.
I’m responsible for my own peace.
But He protects me in the battles I fight on my knees.
The figures of speech I use may often remain unappreciated.
The words I speak may often remain unheard.
The poems I write may often remain unread.
But the beauty of God’s grandeur will never go unnoticed.
You can see it in my starry eyes.
