day six: brown eyes

brown and panicked
her eyes look into my own
for answers to big
questions i don't know
how to answer

hazel and full of tears
her eyes look into my own
for someone to tell her
that it will be okay
she'll be fine

tawny and smiling
her eyes look into my own
as she is running towards me
happy and laughing
and free

coffee colored and calm
her eyes look into my own
our friendship cemented
somehow these past weeks
unspoken

chocolate and crying
her eyes look into my own
tears adorning both our faces
this was goodbye
for a while

chestnut eyes
running towards me
just like they used to
embracing me
crying tears of joy
just glad to be together
looking into each others eyes.
