Do I dare to dream

If I dream of you?

Of your piercing eyes

That sear my soul

Lay bare my soul

My secrets.

Those chips of ice

That can crush my spirit

Break me quicker yet more painfully

That I have ever known possible

With a single look

Yet those fiery blue orbs

Can raise my spirits higher

Than it's ever been with a glance.

They say eyes are the windows of the soul

Yours are.

You may mask your expressions

But your eyes tell a different story.

They dance, they freeze, they sparkle.

I used to think that blue was blue

Even after your lecture on cerulean blue.

But your eyes proved what your words could not.

I now know that there are hundreds of blues

And your eyes flash them all.

They tell the story of you.

Azure is demanding superiority

Blue Iris, when you're with your children.

Cobalt after dealing with Irv

Palatinate when triumphant

And perhaps the most heartbreaking

Ceil blue.

Then you are upset

Not annoyed or irritated

But hurt.

Your eyes

They show you

Your soul

Which is what I want to see

To breathe, to live

To love

Your eyes show you.

Do I dare to dream

If I dream of you?

Do I dare to dream

That you dream of me?

Do you dream of me?

Dream of me as

I dream of you?

Dream of me I dare you.

I dare to dream of you.
