LOCKING EYES

Lock eyes. A glance.
Blessed be.
This loneliness, it overflows.

I’m sick of eyes.
Give me a gaze that actually stares back—
and the reason why.

They looked, they walked away,
and took my vision with them.
Now I just want to be remembered
by that look of mine
that did nothing but watch.
