a deep brown

my eyes are a deep brown.

not icy blue.

or emerald green.

my eyes won't be stared at

or drowned it

or complimented

they aren't noticed in a big crowd

but maybe they're noticed in a small one.

my eyes don't shine like the icy blue eyes

they don't sparkle like the emerald green eyes

but maybe mine shimmer in the sun

by morning the sun makes my eyes bright

and by night my eyes are dark

still once again.

a deep brown

and a light brown.

    with a gleaming smile and long, straight flowing hair.

    taking one good look at her you already know her story.
