The Eyes of a Dreamer

I have beautiful eyes, the eyes of a dreamer; looking away as if taken by wander... Nothing goes by them that I don't notice; and everything but age can change their glance... Mellow eyes of dreamer, not much transformed by the tragedies unfolding in your peaceful path; rarely distracted, always focused on your strange selfishness that molds your wit... Distance is a mystery impossible to be explained or revealed, that one which keeps its shadows active, to hide what cannot be endured by fear; and without an optimistic insight, nothing is ever discerned... I have beautiful eyes, the eyes of a dreamer; with many visions of bliss, without the gloom and the agony of demise; an existence absent of pain, a life so despised by a clever achiever...

Andrew, never think of yourself as having "strange selfishness." You share your thoughts as beautifully as you write! This reminded me a bit of my poem "Unicorn." I have a sleep disorder and have spent much time trying to study the meaning and impact of dreams. Good job. Happy Valentine's Day, Carolyn
