It's All in the Eye

Thoughts rise in the space and distance of an absence. And in the space of the absence lies a reality. 

I saw it in your eyes

The mystery of our existence

Marked by the hesitation

In your stare-

And I wondered

And held the thought

In your eye I saw

The wonder in our existence

As a one-

Yet separate in our reality-

And I wondered

And held the thought

And in my eye

I was sure you saw the fear

Of my hope in our existence

In the you of you linked

With the me of me

Yet in the turmoil of my emotion

I felt the passion in your breath

The halt

The hesitation which said-

I love you-

And I felt the rush of love

And I knew you had marked it

In my eye.
