It's Your Reflection
Just leave behind your paint-by-number days
Move in to your reflection in my eyes
I'll finger paint my love over your grey
So all your daydreams will be colorized
I'll paint a world beyond your wildest dream
With colors undefined on any chart
You'll find with me, no mundane color scheme
Each stroke, I'll add more depth to your fine art
And after each day we will paint the night
The hues in all your dreams will blend with mine
Imagination sparks, then love ignites
Exploding fireworks as our dreams entwine
These eyes are radiant because of you
Your beauty is reflected in my view

My response to Nicola's Radiant Eyes.
Radiant Eyes
Radiant eyes, you haunt my dreams,
And ignite imagination.
Piercing gems, a hint of moonbeams,
Spark my quest for exploration.
Just like a lighthouse, at night, they gleam
And guide me to your loving arms.
Your love and strength govern supreme,
And protect me from daylight harms.
But soon, the earth, in all her schemes,
Pulls me from salvation.
At dawn’s early rise, I am, it seems,
Bled of sweet intoxication.
Oh radiant eyes, where do you go,
When the nightmare of morn has begun?
I try to forget, but the soul with the glow
Lingers ’til I come undone.
Hours are so long, when will I see you
In the waking light of day?
Colour my world with your radiant hue
And end my nightmare grey.
