What my eyes remember

What my eyes remember

A Poem by Orlando Murcia



I sit quietly 

as my eyes begin to think

of what they remember most about you



They see your face that embarrasses the sun

for the sun knows he may never be as radiant as you 



They see the smile that makes stars take a peek

before night takes a meteor shower



They see your eyelashes fall like rain

then ascend like morning as if gone with the wind



They see your hair that reminds them of gold plated fields

being swayed by the air knocked out of my being



I lose my breath



Now you know how air is made 

and why it always blows your way



It follows you like the jealous sun


While your eyes
 


Damn!

 

 



Your eyes are beautiful
 
 


Your eyes my love 

are like two love birds 

that cannot be without each other





Your eyebrows are the rainbows

of your perfect shape sculpture



They are like Michelangelo's work of art

that were engraved on your head



Your nose like Pharaohs masterpiece

buried beneath Egypt's moon



My goddess of unspoken tongue

the siren beauty song that sung

My goddess of unspoken tongue

the siren beauty song that sung

Beautifully written. You successfully convinced me of her beauty inside and out. :)

I disagree with Jackeline... you are not the latin lover (I've had my fill of those who call themselves such,you know), you are a Man, or at least you write like one, full of respect for the woman you love. Beautifully expressed, Orlando. Keep these coming. :)

This is a beautiful poem, because you have a lot of amazing lines, like They see your face that embarasses the sun for the sun knows he can't be more radiant than you! Beautiful you are the latin lover!
