Clinging to my eyes

What if
I lose the way the winter lights shine off the buildings?
The soft blue of the sky?
The breeze in the naked trees?

What if
I lose the feelings that come only with
reading a really good book?
Seeing a really good movie?
Taking a really good picture?

What if
I lose
The blue in his eyes?
The shine in her hair?
The cockiness in his smile?
The freckles on her nose?
The darkness of her eyelashes?

Who ever knew I would treasure those two blue-green orbs as much as I do
Now that I know I might lose them.
