there exist no galaxies
February 24, 2019
there exist no galaxies
in plain brown eyes
no specks of gold around the edges
no reflections of the world outside
nothing, save for whirlpools
of darkness enveloping anyone
who dares look inside
there exist no galaxies
in plain brown eyes
no mischievous gleam
no room for wonder
no margin of error
nothing, save for hurricanes
of certain demise waiting for anyone
who dares look inside
there exist no galaxies
in plain brown eyes
no sympathy
no mercy
no wholehearted apologies
nothing, save for oceans
of anguish drowning anyone
who dares look inside
