In Your Eyes

As I sat there captivated by that beautiful smile I looked into your incredible eyes and saw a reflection of myself My other half, my soul mate And the old adage that “the eyes are the window to the soul” took on new meaning I wondered how I would describe those eyes to someone else Their striking color matched only by the intensity in which they burned into my very soul In those precious few moments a torrent of emotions filled me And I felt something akin to recognition Like a love once lost and found again And for the briefest of moments all the pain was forgotten All the heartbreak and sadness gone We looked at one another like long separated lovers Granted one final wish of seeing each other a last time Each suddenly awakened by the one who captured their hearts And would hold sway over them FOREVER
