In My Eyes Poem by Ranis Thomas III

In my eyes,
you are king
of all kings,
and strength in many hearts.

You saved me from heartache
and pain.

When I dreamed
of your kindness,
and willingness to be there for me
those few moments.

Your purpose gave me meaning to a new life.
My own life.

Days go by
and
waiting becomes harder.
My patience seems weaker.

I lived to hold memories
in my heart.
That's how I survived.

In my eyes you weren't there,
but you were.

You gave me hope with that one gift.
The gift to appreciate the smaller
things in life,
and to have the drive for
motivation.

Things do come easy, but can easily go.

In my eyes
you are gone forever.
But you still keep me strong.
Stronger then the ram that stands still,
over the tallest mountain.

It's your spirit
that keeps me alive.
Your face that tells me,
that I will always have you,
in my eyes.
