Once My Hero by Anita MacYour eyes are sunken,
and I am concerned.
Take a step back;
this is as far as I go.
Flushing confusion
commandeers my face
each time you apologize
by way of a
"Thank you."
Pleading eyes.
I see
sunken pleading eyes,
and I am concerned.
What did I do?
What did you do?
Intention and unintention
between tangent lives,
can it even matter?
You are stunning.
I am lost in
sunken pleading stunning eyes,
and I am
concerned.
