Eyes of Mind

We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are." -Anaïs Nin Memories of heart, half buried in open graves, expectations etched in enchanted dreams. Tear sodded sights, dry preoccupied minds unknown truth camouflage visible known lies. Clear 20/20 vision all blurred beyond a veil, thought filled head, blankets a dawdled mind. Temptress of emotions, seduces and misleads distorted light bends, through eyes of prism mind. Bright yellow refracts, into shades of sunset pink, deep blue shimmers in orange hide and seek. We morph and mould, a cocktail of our own, rivulets scream soft roars, of invisible torrents. I see sunflowers blooming on your snowflakes, bumbling butterflies, or insects in cocoon ? You see distant deep craters all dusty faraway... My eyes blaze in love, as I see my beautiful moon. 7th February 2020 Sponsor Maureen McGreavy Contest Name She Inspires Series - AN Placed third in the premiere contest
