how
youreyes
your
suneyes
stirred
my blood

that last time
that last moment

stirred something
hungry
parched
somethingdeep

youreyes
that last moment

how
they
seared
into
my brain
my
soul

branding
you
into
the
hidden corners
of me
now
open
like a flower
to
your light
to
your sun

youreyes
forever amber

taking me
branding
me
into the marrow
of
your
bones
aching now
with cold
at
my
leaving you

youreyes
that last moment

so full
with
the what
the when
overflowing
with
the
how
of
me
and you

youreyes sunbrown
myeyes earthbrown

taking
the measure
saying
the measure

shining
with rivers of goodbye
that last time

eyes
that last moment

telling.

Hey, Frankie, I'm finally visiting your blog. I love the poems, especially the images and format. I notice that they are already copyrighted. Does this mean that you have published them already somewhere else? Or will they be coming out soon? Did you know that Marcos wrote Kathy B. a letter of rec to get funding to attend a poetry workshop over the summer. She writes sonnets. I'll keep visiting.

This blog was my favorite form 2008. Although the words used were so small, it seems that they are the words with so much meaning. I find it so interesting how we can all tell so much simply from looking into someones eyes. We can see the lies and the truths and the pain all behind someones eyes. Now I know I am not the only person that looks for something when I lookinto someones eyes.
