Loving Tributes You look at me like no one else,
seeing below
surface pleasantries;
you decipher my heart’s S.O.S.
on fluttering eyelashes.
Your pupils learned
to discern understanding
on angst-inscribed irises
and to lose yourself
in hazel flecks.
You finger-trace freckles
like Braille letters,
finding flawlessness
despite discolorations
on blushed skin.
Though tongues
spoke foreign languages,
eyes translated universal truths
and transferred meaning to
parted lips.
