!nto Eyes

Into my eyes caught a shape
and Into my sight I escaped.

Looking to see what was there
I reached inside with my ear.

I sat still through my fears
Held my breath through tears
Turned a cheek at the glares.

People stared...yes,
And sadly they turned away.
How could it be this very day
That they didn't see to know...

Two crystals live
on the bridge of our nose.
