Her blue eyes stare at me
With wonder and hope

My heart breaks a little
But I still turn around and go.
Her blue eyes stare at me
With confusion and fear
My heart breaks a little more
But I’m told to leave her alone.
Her blue eyes stare at me
With awe and joy
As I ignore the others,
And start to walk to her.
Their brown eyes glare at me
With hatred and distrust
But I don’t care what they think
For the decision is mine.
