Color Blinded
Seeing Souls
My eyes nothing but a ruse
The physical is far beyond my view
Mirrors are wasted empty panes of glass
Lenses capture nothing but memories past
Looking into someone else's eyes
An intense experience for me
Because it's not your face
These green eyes see.
It’s your soul that glows beyond your skin
A tangible aura of the choices you live
Every vulnerable moment
you chose trust and love
Each time you were brave
Instead of giving up,
Every insult you swallowed
With silence and pride
Each failure you grabbed
And looked in the eyes
With a fierceness that
Left it terrified
A muse like fire
That’s burning inside
I can see each flame
Radiating sapphires
Mists of emerald
Brazen lemon limes
Flashes of ruby
Fireworks
Like candy to my eyes
These bodies are fascinating
But obsessed over irrationally,
Your soul is by far
The most beautiful thing
My eyes have never seen.
