Eye Contact
Intuitive attraction,closed eye interaction
spoken words braille's translation
dead silence amidst their hesitation
intuition their sacred present
through vacant eyes each felt the other's presence
in silence their hearts' rhythm is heard
as passions were observed
gentle hands touch facial expressions
their physical identity an unanswered question
Emotions...facial braille
sullen expressions,complexions pale
facial texture,old and smooth as fetal skin
both transcend first impressions
their kind words contradict facial braille expressions
beneath their aging veils , their true impressions
observed , yet both transcend timid nerves
Since birth their eyes were blind
neither yearned vision
their intuition lends its wisdom
