that hint of light blue.

his eyes are green,
like faded-out leaves
given too much sunlight.
his smile lights up
those perfect eyes.

yet there's blue.
in his eyes.
light blue,
almost grey
showing something
you wouldn't
expect, inside
such a beautiful
soul.

he's sad.

the depth,
the darkness
in his eyes shows
it all.
he's struggling.
he's hurting.
he doesn't have to
say it.
cause i know.

the only one
i've ever loved
in my entire life
is sad.

& the fact that i
can't make that one
little piece of sadness
leave him for good

hurts me.
