Sapphire eyes
With little flecks of green
Bursting with light
Caught in the undertow of your stare.

Long black lashes
Contrast with the deep blue
Reach out and grab me
Dragging me in.

Drawing my eyes to yours
Our eyes so close
Almost touching
Our lashes knit together

Making us
Part of each other.
Binding a couple into
One.

I love this poem so much. The detail of it draws me in so much it feels like I'm actually inside of the poem. It shows what everybody wants or what to obtain in the future.

the poem gives you a sense of what the poet is yearning for and in this poem he(I presume) is in love with a girl and loves the way she looks. the poem is very descreptive of the subject and paints a picture for you. love this poem and its honesty and courage.

I like your poem. In my POV, I think your poem has to do with love. It's telling me that you're in love with someone and their presence drags you into them. Or makes you fall deeper in love with them.
