All energy, gathered
And spread through
The intensity of one look!

Eyes, obsession,
A soul’s beautiful expression,
Movement and stillness!

Colors that mix,
Shape drawn by heritage,
By history and ancestors.

Taste of salty tears,
Only they remain the same,
As innocent as they were
When you were only a child!

Sincerity I do hope to find,
But also the bizarre
That moves my heart!

Alive are your eyes,
All of their energy sent to me,
The intensity of one look!
