Eyes to see

Like a torrent they come
sweeping, shamelessly taking over
Regret. Despair. Fear. 
What-ifs rage, demand answers
Hope. Nostalgia. 
The taste of dreams
Emotions unbridled 
Jostle for control

But give me eyes to see
You through this tumbling bag  
of haphazard emotions
This pick n mix
I want to see through the haze
Dimly now, now clearer
Can I trust you,
trust you even in this?

You see it all 
Yet unflinchingly love
See it clearly 
For all its rag-tag mess
The glory under wraps
You call out the Truth
Who I am and why I am 
And one look at You
Sets me free
