Myopia Has Lead Me Astray

I swear I'll make this up to you--
these broken blackened nights...
This sky was once beautiful,
blue, I remember;
but I've smeared over every color,
every hint of light...

I want to give in to you--
your arms, your eyes,
deep brown blankets shielding me,
saving me...

I want to feel the collected calm
that you promise is possible to achieve,
and I believe I'll be okay in time;

With you, I'll find the beautiful
deep blue night; and in it,
I'll finally lose myself in you.

Author notes

For Chris, who saves me every day.

    As someone who works for an ophthalmolgist...great title! Sounds like you need Lasik refractive surgery, only for your heart and not your eyes. I'm hoping this Chris is the person who gives you clearer vision.

    Moving, and sad... Love is so simple and yet far too complex.
    Keep up the writing!
    Take care
