Amber eyes

The summer sun shone just right against your eyes
i gave you this awed look
you stared back
with this look that has my name
written all over
a glazed look makes me wonder
why you're so far away
behind those curtains
you hide your characters
i wonder whether to kiss you, and tell you how i feel,
or forget it
but my jealousy
kept me wanting them to see only me.
and see and what i am, but also what i wanted to be.
i wanted them to remember me
forever
i wanted to lose myself in their charm, protect them from the explicitness of life.
experience their joys and sorrows.
i bless the day i found a pair of beautiful hidden marvels of wonder, those amber eyes shielded from the world, and me under a bandana.
