your eyes

they held the hope of youth

the aspirations of a generation 

they shone like the stars

lights danced like constellations 

in your eyes

i wanted to see myself

in those eyes that held the galaxy

lips parted, you cast your gaze to the sky

my breath left my chest all at once,

i was taken aback by your effortless beauty

the peach and golden light of the setting sun illuminated your face,

the horizon was painting a masterpiece 

and you were the canvas

moving through the room, you brought all their eyes with you

you danced with sheer power

youth radiated in your movement

your eyes darkened with your dance

yet it lit up the room 

your voice bounced off the walls

you called after me

nothing had ever sounded so sweet

than my name when it was called by you
