At First Glance

This is a poem I wrote my freshman year of high school, and it has a lot of meaning in it. (Well, I put a lot of meaning into it, but I don't know if people will catch it.) So yep, enjoy~

At first glance,

I swore I became blind

By the sight of dazzling,

And flawless, lovely perfection

Of musical movement that swayed

My adolescent blue eyes.

At first glance,

I thought I had a glorious trance,

But then I have come to realize

My eyes perceived a realm of honesty

And truthful beauty

Beyond any imagination and mankind.

At first glance,

The extension of shiny, light auburn thread

With an addition of coffee-tainted conviction

Triggered my cranium to blossom,

And my five senses

To rise light years of levels

That even I am still clueless to this day.

At a second glance, and many glances after,

I travel back to that beginning memory

Of that significant, debuting day

When I saw the first grace of promenade

With light auburn thread

And coffee-tainted conviction

Rings of something that took place in the past. Your words here have many layers and definitely the depth of writing is clearly visible. An emotional attachment or a very good memory perhaps? Great use of words to give a vivid imagery. Loved the way you presented this. I liked it a lot ^^

When reading this poem I experienced much of what it says, "I swore I've became blind by the sight of dazzling, and flawless, lovely perfection", "My eyes perceived a realm of honesty and truthful beauty". Amazingly written. One of my favourite pieces I've read
