He was young and headstrong with eyes to prove it.
His focus is penetrating.
Eyes like pale blue marble,
hard as stone,
but bendable,
over time and with patience.

Seeing the world differently,
through such unyielding portals,
it may never return
what he believes a kind glance.

I pity that boy
with his pale marble eyes
because they will never
allow innocence
its fair chance.
