I have never looked at myself
the way you looked at me
.
when I reminisce
I cannot recall who I was before
subdue sets in a long time ago
I was dimmed in twilight
until our eyes met
.
with tearful glitter
you have brought joy to the unheard
you held onto me and led me to prostrate
at baby level
I was blinded by the change
.
but then
I see you in my eyes
& managed to peek
at the world
living in your irises
&
quietly I let you
.
I cannot recall who I was before
until the day our eyes met..
