i don't know you anymore

i don't know you anymore

A Poem by valerie
"

your eyes looked so beautiful on the day you said goodbye.

"
your eyes look like:
the sun rising behind a stained-glass window
a hurricane crashing into land
the smoke that fills the air after a cigarette is lit
an array of fish amidst a coral reef
my old, torn-up pair of blue jeans
dewdrops on forget-me-nots at dawn
waking up to a foggy window
the curtains drawn at 3 p.m.
a pool that i can't see the bottom of.
