What Are Sighs Made Of?

Eye Sigh

Sighs do not only leave our mouths,
they exit our eyes, as well -
like crumpled clouds losing courage -
unable to remain airborne
they sail, emptily, to the ground.

An eye sigh is the antithesis
of the everday eye roll,
it's more forgiving and pitying
it knows under the luminous umbrella,
called Human Love, cower dark things

Like vanity, fear, weakness, jealousy,
even sickness, destruction and hate
it knows too, that we are responsible
for the creation of our 'enemy'...
and that a free person is without them.
