My eyes see

A world full of possibilities

Tapered off but only by

Limited beliefs and imagination

And the stagnation to do more

For I gaze upon

A night full of stars

As they don’t seem so far

Away from me 

Coincidentally

I’m not far away from them either

Nor sun or moon

As I swoon by the sight of each one

For my eyes

Stare within and into the very universe

Of me and to reach

The deep recesses of my mind

Yet outwardly bind me to 

The things before me

Or so it would seem

For I deem to 

Tread carefully with decisions

Not thought upon and wrought by

The negative results that follow

For at times I feel hollow

As my eyes see a space

That has allowed for a missing piece

And a part that certain parts of life

Greatly increased

Not shallow but humble

Not careless but thoughtful

Within my web of utter existence

For I see with these eyes of mine

At a great distance 

Of an amazing future waiting for me

But seen in the now and claimed today

For my eyes harness 

That which lies in my soul

And many stories within

Yet to be told

Nor do I deny

For lo, the depths of me and beyond

Truly seen through and with my eyes.
