My eyes are of two colors, <br />mirrors of a soul divided. <br />The left: the color of doubt. <br />The right: the color of wonder. <br /> <br /> <br />I was once both beautiful <br />and brave. My smile <br />drove away the clouds. <br /> <br /> <br />Today, the ghosts of my youth <br />are demanding answers. <br />I cast a stone of silence. <br /> <br /> <br />A Joshua tree drinks the stars. <br />Tomorrow, the sun will rise <br />black in the sky.<br /><br />David Kowalczyk<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/burning-small-satin-rivers/
