Open Bright Eyes

Vast nothingness
Open pages
Connected stars
Bright eyes

A tingling touch
A riveting feeling
Manifest my destiny

Close my eyes
Feel my soul
Feed my spirit

Open your lips, your hands, your heart
And create beauty

The clouds
They move slowly above your head
But don't miss their movement

(This poem was written in about 2 minutes. I sat down and wrote the first words that
popped into my head.)
