eyes a’shining

her eyes, see possibility
an effigy of imminence
soft and blurred
edges keen to the brink
of a reality's threshold whet

her eyes, see a man
both proud and lorn
standing right inside her
gazing aloud within her sight
to the sepiad landscape shone

her eyes, see a world aflame
of ideals and expression
sought after piece by meal
with an honesty
that shadows a visage remote
receding into a future precedence

her eyes....see a hesitancy
but she looks away in acceptance
trusting the affirmation's motif
the tension pardoned...immobile

for her eyes, see a far surround us
to what we can not perceive
to what we disregard
to what we do not believe
a caring guaranteed....professed
