complex

let's stare into this space and take it apart
Finding the wishes, regrets, and where it all starts
tearing apart from the delicate web it's formed
words falling onto a dark velvet robe, ready to be worn
by the exact owner that takes up a mask
not wanting to be known or asked
of what they're hiding
quite obvious of what's lying
beneath the very mask is a reflection
staring back with a gaze of correction
only to be fond of what the image holds
how beauty is found within the eyes of the old
these eyes captivate as well as perplex
trying to make sense of what's so complex
the shutter clicks and the lens blink
catching a perfect scene while feeling a bit pink
embarrassed by those staring around
suddenly realizing the faint sound
calling out and beckoning to come
dropping all that's lost and done
the mask comes off and the breeze is fine
words now escape and form into a line
making a simple sentence that can be heard
"I'm ready to learn"
These simple words mean a new start
what's complex is now pulled apart
taking off all that holds down
reaching up over the top and looking around
An eye holds a captivating gaze
stopping all motion as the world sways
It blinks once and all is ready
focus now and make it steady
look back into this space find all that's apart
funny to think that took place in a heart
