somebody's dungeon

It is the moment of pause
I miss.

That time out there on the road
when thoughts of delivering the load
were gone from your mind
and in a moment of reflect
I would detect
your stare.

There,

within your eyes
I saw, with soft edges
the image of myself.

Smudge of carbon on my face
weary from the day

yet veiled,

seen through your eyes
a prize, beauty in pause
without any flaws.

It is this, I miss
the sight of me
through love laced eyes.

This is very sweet and loving.
Enjoyed the innocense of this heartfelt realization that comes inbetween the frantic moments of everyday reality.

Much enjoyed thank you for sharing.
