I Can See His Eyes

Mikey,

I’m scribbling in the dark tonight. Sending words to you is where I still turn.

I can see his eyes. They are green eyes just like mine. They look at me without blinking. He doesn’t move. He doesn’t cry anymore. He just looks at me with my green eyes.

I can’t move. I know it will do no good. I can’t reach him or touch him. The evil won’t let me. Each time I try, he stomps on my broken fingers again or kicks me so hard it lifts me off the ground. No matter what, I can just see his eyes.

I can see his eyes now even through all the tears. How is that possible? He’s not even blurred.

I squeeze my eyes shut. They are is tightly closed as I can make them. No matter, for I can still see his eyes. They still just look at mine. 

I would gouge my eyes out if that would make it go away but I know, even then, I would still see his eyes.
