Dedicated to poetess Holly Hamilton
That's not pathetic wished to be seen,
invisibility is a realm for afterlife;
seeking, solitude will find a company
that will no fade as the fog does, like
running up to disappear at the top
that crowns every mountain side.
Looking in many mirrors I have seen
that kind of questioning dark eyes,
like Holly’s, never getting honest answers,
maybe because our eyes where outside
the reflecting silver back of all the glasses,
looking, always looking, where is life?
Haven’t noticed that some of your friends
have their eyes full of eternal smiles?
they don’t talk about the inflicted abuse,
it is too deep, under seven locks, inside,
curious ears maybe will want to know,
but Holly, she wouldn’t tell her side.
Eyes that smile, but never will say about
a thorn that’s lodged in a heart much alive,
a constant hurt, stabbing more and more,
the wound that never gets old with time,
it is not a pain produced by gentle love,
it’s from many memories…and cries.
Inside Holly’s eyes, there’s something, but,
you wouldn’t see, nor will ever I,
a veil left by tears is there to cover them
so we can’t see what really is inside;
because you forget to look for sadness there,
as she’s blinding you with her smile.

Her poetry is a better "reflection" of who she is.

You are the kind of man I can relate to for many reasons that little know about. But I will say this about the little stinker that I am... I can't stand injustice..in anything yet I see it all the time everywhere I look. I want to cry, but instead I smile... afterall the show must go on!
Till the day I die I will search out poeple like you! Real people and hopefully will not ever fail you. God Bless You my friend, Love Holly

Maybe she smiles to hide the pain: all you can see is brilliant white, with tears hidden in her eyes...who knows? This is an outstanding tribute to our Holly; well done.
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
Simply beautiful.
Love you both,
Annie
as she’s blinding you with her smile.
You continue to pen some marvelous and insightful 'eye poems,' my friend. And dear Holly has become a very good friend to many of us here in AD. You honor her very well.
Nice tribute to one our finest.
Peace, Love, and Light,
