““AT FIRST SIGHT Looking up at me she does question the beauty that most men believe her to possess with an almost displeased notion of herself. Her eyes seem to almost deepen with a sorrow that only I feel impelled to acknowledge. It is her second take of me that gives her away and it is her argument of self that moves me with a determination to reveal within her all that causes me to marvel. I feel anxious to know her and anxious to explain to this beauteous creature why there is no need to question. For the first time in my life I feel a desire in my heart to give this woman the one true peace that I have only now found. Only in the eyes of such grace, whose heart longs for those answers do I now feel relinquished to impart. Her haunting eyes seem to climb inside of my body where my soul can rest no more. It is her faint smile that lifts me up and tears me down. It is this feeling that I now consider to be that great mystery–even that mystery worth knowing and loving for as long as my body gives me breath.””
