Here’s to the boy with that mesmerizing black eyes and a beautiful soul
Here’s to the boy who has that jet black eyes that I always get lost into whenever I look.
You might always say that you’re a mess, a good-for-nothing guy who has no direction in life. But I’ve seen far beyond that.
I have seen a boy who has been a victim of this cruel world. A child with a soft heart who isn’t ready for the daggers of reality.
I saw a frail heart with a strong motivation to change the world. A bigger dream, so much bigger than the world can handle.
I have seen you picking up your broken parts and stitching it back. Holding back those salt water coming from your eyes because you are told that real men don’t cry.
I’ve seen how this society ripped you in the edges to mold you into someone they can love, someone pleasing to their detrimental eyes.
Here’s to you and to the spark in your eyes that they cannot dull. The flame of your heart you keep deep within.
I have watched you write and talk so passionately, and I wish I captured those moments when I was able to see your soul. But I always lose myself in all your stories, in those two black holes called your eyes.
And I think, after watching you, you ought to know that it’s okay to cry. It’s okay to be weak. Even if you’re a man. Everyone cried out to the world the first time to say “I’m alive!” So please, let me know that you are.
To the boy who write so beautifully, please continue. I want to remember your soul in words and letters.
Your sharp edges would soon fit someone else’s. You and her will collide like puzzle pieces to make a beautiful picture.
You might hate how mundane the color of your eyes is but I can see a completely new universe in it, that sometimes I want to be part of it. A part of you.
But all I can do now is to watch you from afar. Admire you in the shadows.
To the boy who has a good heart, I know this world sucks but please don’t let them extinguish the fire of your dreams.
I know how high your hope is to make things better for everyone. And I believe in you.
I will wait to see the world you imagine come into life. ◽
