The glance

Poem Body

I can't remember
the shape of your eyes
but the glance I still do
as beautiful as invisible
as calm as afraid

Because here
in the mountain
darkness is draping me with fear

And I feel that someone is walking behind me

If I turn back
I extinguish myself
I cease

I believe the first verse is perfect, and could stand on its own. The second verse is also powerful, but i think the ending could be ( If i turn to you, I extinguish, I cease. ) But please these are only suggestions, this is a lovely poem as it is. Love Roscoe..

I like your suggestions but it's a bit late for any change here
it's already published
'If I turn to you' sounds great
but never mind
glad you like it
