Leading lights – I follow.
I meet her gaze,
with almond shaped eyes,
bright as amber,
dazzling and mysterious.
Beneath the surface
-a forest of secrets.
I could get lost.
Gaze replaces communication
-the language of soul.
A map to my destiny
-long and winding…
Can I communicate in her frequency?
This is beautiful and captivating content and phrasing. I love how it ends – that question is thought-provoking and crucial.
You use first person throughout, until the last line which is second person. Have you considered changing it all to be the same point of view?
Nice job! 🙂
