When Eyes Blink

When paths cross,

And hearts meet.

When speech is at a loss,

Is where hands greet.

When faces shine,

And thoughts escape.

When yours is also mine,

Is where perfection begins to shape.

When lips assemble,

And love is near.

When bodies tremble,

Is where the answer lies in fear.

When great minds think,

And opinions and views are at exchange.

When eyes blink,

Is where the whole world can drastically change.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

It's ironic that the one thing we fear the most is also the same thing that drives life forward; change. "When Eyes Blink" symbolizes how in a split second, or in the blink of an eye, one's life can completely rearrange.
