Missing You

Dedicated to Elaine

My eyes don’t feel like looking right now,
my eyes don’t always see what is in front of them.

When I am looking inside me,
my eyes are unfocused.

When I see my inner self,
I can’t close my eyes to the reality of me.

I can use my eyes to know you
to see through you.

I can see your heart 
clear as day in your eyes.

My eyes don’t feel like looking right now,
they are too busy crying
because I can’t look into your eyes anymore.
