Love Poem: Give Me New Eyes

Give Me New Eyes

Give me the eyes of the blind
To blacken the world’s ugliness
To take every laugh as happiness

Give me the eyes of a baby
To make me laugh at anything
To stare curiously at any being

Give me the eyes of a stranger
To ache for belonging and acceptance
To endure an amicable suspense

Give me the eyes of true love
To trust and believe in the future
To experience it with a mind picture
