world in my eyes

I've never been one to take pride in my memory. I rarely remember things. Yet, I do remember that day. I'd been longing for guidance and one day, all the guidance in the world came to me through her eyes. How could I ever dare forget those eyes, her icy blue eyes that seemed to see right through me. I knew right then, that she had seen everything, I was stripped down to the bone in front of her, she knew it all, my sin and the blood on my hands. She had seen the worst of me, and still, she wouldn't leave. The forgiveness and love in her eyes. I knew she understood. She came up to me and told me to sleep well. I knew I'd never see her again.
