This poetry speaks how beauty could lock one’s eyes and eventually forget everything all else. My friend desired to see it; I didn’t. He died five years ago but his memory is still etched in my memory, fresh and ever new.

I removed mine

He’d worn his.

Desiring to see clearly

What I saw

Before

He discovered that lady

His lips curved unconsciously

Lost in his eternity

Oblivious of me, memorizing

Her details, his eyes run fast and wide

Isolating his subject

Among other creations

Forming her figure

In the spectacles he just wore.
