Your eyes


Your eyes lie vacant
Sometimes sharp like a lion
Who’s been hungry for three days

Sometimes mellow like migratory birds
On their journey to a new known place

Your eyes are fearless
Like a small lovely town
Undiscovered and flourishing

Your eyes are full of distance
Like a soldier in the enemy camp
Grim and angry
And optimistic about building a country

Your eyes
Slowly trickling down my skin
Quiet and sudden
 On the day we meet
