Aqua Eyes

Aqua Eyes

A Poem by Kat Collins
"

"To an unrequited need...love...experience...my heart."

"

Those penetrating aqua eyes

Evade my insistent gaze.

Will you ever meet mine?

Too much, you say,

I can’t handle it.

I’ll lose control

And then where will we be?

Sighing deep

Evisceral pain.

I know

I know

I know.

Sliding my fingers through

Bouncy, slinky curls

Shimmering blonde.

Someday, I say,

I need to hope.

When timing is right.

Right? If ever…

I know

I know

I know.

Gentle tugs,

Caressing hands.

I feel your nudge

Your heated need

Answering my sigh.

Those pools of aqua eyes

Hesitating, longing, seeking

Mine.

My heart is cracking,

Splintering,

Fine crystal in shards.

I know

I know

I know.

Sadness drips

Curving against her cheek.

Liquid silver in those aqua eyes.

Please, you breathe, please

If only

If…only…

The gut-wrenching ache

Of losing her whisper

Don’t ever forget me, I plead

How could she?

Smoldering, seeping, butterfly kisses

I won’t.

I can't.

I know.



good work

Very emotive, I love the pacing and the way your words paint a vivid picture of your thoughts and feelings.

A brilliant piece :)

Reading aloud is easy... remembering to breathe afterwards - is worth the price of admission... YOU touched me, behind-my-eyes.

Take care hon,
Chris
