Looking Into the Eyes of Amelia

Asleep at two with curling wisps
around your precious face

Brow furrowed in concentration
of your dream playing out within

Then the lashes part revealing eyes
A startling tourmaline blue

Eyes that look into a horizon
 masked in thinning fog

What do you see little seafarer
through eyes that change with the light

Inner illuminated with a fire  burning ever so bright
 Come home,come home,come home to me

The source of ignition calls remember me
As I have never forgotten you

This reads of a heart longing, a heart so very much missing another. Nice Vickey :)
