Siena Long
dear people with brown eyes
i’m sorry your eyes don’t get enough love.
there’s ocean eyes
emerald eyes
but what about brown?
brown the color of late autumn.
of chocolate and hazelnut.
of amber and onyx
of the first sip of warm coffee in the morning
don’t even get me started on when the sun hits them
when shown into the light,
these eyes,
are a sight
are the browns to crave
whiskey and honey,
sweet intoxication
“But aren’t brown eyes so common?”
so is rain.
so is sunshine.
so is laughter and love and kindness
all colors have come together just to be put in your eyes.
isn’t that beautiful?
