Her Eyes

My daughter, my best friend...

Her Eyes

When I look at your eyes, I see magic,

The kind of magic that grips your heart

And makes all pain and sadness disappear.

I see so much beauty, so much love that you have for me.

I watch you intently, and notice how eager you are to learn from me.

There are no words to explain the fascination you bring to me.

Knowing I created those eyes, and that beautiful smile.

All I want to do is show you what I have learned, 

and keep you away from the pain that I have felt.

I have seen your eyes cry and all I want to do is hold you

like when you were a baby.

But I know that you are growing up, and I have to let you spread your wings.

As much as I would like you protect you from all harm,

I also know that I must allow you to experience it 

so you can know what it's like to be a woman.

I creating my masterpiece, the project that I've been working on for 14 years.

As I watch you smile, and flutter your eyelashes, 

I smile inside because I gave you that heart that is ever so special.

Your eyes always speak to me, words that you don't say.

I read your eyes and immediately answer your very thoughts.

Those big eyes of yours, can brighten my day with just your gaze.

For 14 years I have looked at you and become hypnotized,

it is a miracle to me to have such a beautiful daughter,

because every time I look at your eyes I realize angels do exist.

You are the apple of my eyes Vianee, my sunshine and my little birdy with the yellow bill!
