Addiction

Sometimes, when I look,I see
Your eyes, reflecting back at me
My thoughts and dreams, of being free.
But then again, that far off look,
Eyes, ancient, like stone figures
On Easter Island, gazing out to sea.
I am alone then, kicking stones
Along the shore of your existence.
I laugh, I cry, you do not hear,
Oblivious to ought but your own pain.
Eyes, grey, stone, and cold,
Lost in an eternity of silence.

Nice. That Kon-Tiki guy recently died, too, as I recall.

To me it sounds like you have 20/20 vision. The perfect vision
comes when you look into someones eyes....and see reflective
images of yourself! :-) In really seeing we must see the happy free
and the misery, the lost the found, the good the bad, as only than
can we really appreciate the beauty of sight!

Albert, Exactly, and it destroyed my life, but that was a long time ago, and you learn to let go.
