For Andrew.
It is said that the eyes are the window to the soul,
So I tell you now,
Stare into my soul.
Look into the depths of me,
let my innermost thoughts envelop you.

What is it that you see?

Is there beauty there, in that place?
Can you see the way you make it come to life?
It hasn't always been this way.

Cold, barren, and desolate,
This place was once lonely and forgotten.
Animosity and hostility haunted this place,
The two together were a force to be reckoned with.

Until that day, THAT day.

With one look,
this place,
the very core of me,
came alive.
With one kiss,
you set it on fire.

With that fire,
You ended the perpetual winter in this place.
Now it has experienced the beauty of spring,
The excitement of summer,
and the crisp, refreshing taste of fall.

All because of you.

So look into my eyes, love,
and see the beauty that exists.
There, in that place,
in the deepest part of me,
there is life,
there is warmth,
there is love,
and there is you..
