Windows to the Soul

Mesmerizing sky blue eyes,
Ageless, deep, and very wise,
My young son, but an old soul,
Who was here briefly to love and know.

Eyes are the windows to the soul they say,
Reflections of inner realms at play,
I understand this now much more,
Than I ever did before.

Why did you have to leave,
For me to remember and to grieve?
What mysteries can you now share,
With your knowledge from over there?

You opened my heart like a flower in full bloom,
But you left far too soon,
My heart grieves and mourns your passing,
But our love is everlasting.

Love transcends space and time,
Written as an eternal rhyme,
I am grateful and very blessed,
For the time you were here with us.
