Forever in One Look

I. Flores

One look at you and I know I’m doomed,

your dark eyes framed in crystal,

kind as I always assumed

calling me with a whistle.

They are a sea I could sail on for an eternity,

one look at them, not a word said,

but we understood everything.

I could recognize them in this and every other lifetime,

for they keep me prisoner,

every time I hear the bell chime

one look at your eyes and I know it’s over.

Just one look at your eyes,

and this mind of mine,

becomes more yours

once we intertwine.
