If I had not known your eyes
perhaps the day would be
easier to understand
gentler to me
If I hadnt memorized
the sound you make
while standing close to me
I might have filled my memory up
with august skies or july seas
but as it is my memory world
has little room for skies
all the space is taken up
remembering your eyes.
