Eyes of Blue

Eyes of Blue

A Poem by Theresa

It's as if I can still see your eyes

Loving and kind with a crystal blue hue

How they would sparkle like stars in the nights sky

Sometimes I swear I can still see your smile too

Contagious and grand full of delight

A quick tug on your lips could light up a room

Then that dreadful day came and there was no more light

Your eyes, your smile placed underground and marked with a tomb

I wept for you for days and days

Even now one year later tears still fill my eyes

A feeling of emptiness conveys

My breath becomes short and outcomes unspeakable cries

Then through blurry eyes I spot your picture on the wall

I wipe away the tears and gain my composure

It's as if I hear your voice call

I follow in hopes of closure

Closure I do not find and know I probably never will

But a tug at my lip and a smile begins to rise

The pain fades and my heart begins to fill

And it's as if I can still see your eyes

I literally sighed after reading this... really quite a moving piece of remembrance.

Your eyes, your smile placed underground and marked with a tomb

that line alone gripped my heart.

Very nice poem.
I like the use of description and how deep and intimate the poem is.
Great job, I'm looking forward to your next one.
