129. To The Girl In The Distance

Your smile is worth
     a thousand rainbows dancing
     across a midnight sky.
The tearful eyes of this child
     gaze to you to see
     what beauty life doth hold.
I see the endless nights,
     the joyous days,
     the times you forget me.
How oft I sit and wonder
     what my words mean
     to you and your heart,
Yet all I see are those eyes,
     the happiness I wish I knew,
     and your back as you walk away.
