The man with the blue eye
looked at me with anguish and despair.
He was desperate
with a rugged look to him.
Worn, out and tired, he tried to say
something, but no words came out.
There was only one feature of his face
that caught my attention,
the blue eye glaring at me with
power, at first looked like
a sapphire marble, but then as
the sun beamed down on the sides of his face
it was like the night sky had drowned
the pupil with a sudden burst of determination.
The man with the blue eye asked questions,
but I wasn’t the one to provide the answers.
