heaven forbid they see you cry

blue eyes

Blue Eyes

Lines taken from the short story Aero Bars by Robert Hilles

I was taken by those blue eyes.

He laughed

And

Something in me was set free.

He was

The sun shining on a Saturday morning

Understanding

I was afraid even as I grew older

Believing with all his life that

I

Could save him

If nothing else.

But

I turned away.

I built up an amazing fabric of lies.

I was afraid.

Goodbye.

He didn't say much.

I am reminded

It was me that didn't say

I love you.
