Light Is Mornings Eyes

Light is mornings eyes;
and as they open, so do mine.
 
I watch the sun watch me through the window.
 A submersed dream , floating to the surface of the water.
 Just visible enough to see through hazy ripples.
 
My eyelashes; a pair of soldiers working on a compromise.
 Shuttering in protection.
Holding back the day;
and what's left of a dream.
