It's Okay to Blink

Beneath your eyelids

Lay intricate feelings

Regrets, pain, sadness

Of things done or not done

Words said and said incorrectly

Things that could never be expressed properly

And will never be told

Or that

Are just too much

To confront in the heart

Felt heavy for that quick

Millisecond when you blink

And seen

When you open your eyes
