10. Early morning mourning glory

Chloe's p.o.v

I have a pair of chocolate chip cookies for eyes.

I dare you to look into my eyes and take a bite out of my brownies, dreams.

No matter what the circumstances, I refuse to drown myself in sorrow and allow you to wear my crown.

Behind these dark brown clouds, there lives an ambitious person who is destined for greatness.

Behind these dark chocolate eyes, there is heaven and I have nothing but love for you.

Dirty, are eyes like these made out of ashes, mud or coal?

Do eyes like these grow on crosses and hardwood floors?

Behind these flashlights so called eyes of mine, butterflies lay awake waiting for the right perfect moment to take flight.
