Her Eyes

Posted on April 6, 2021 by Christina Anne Hawthorne

What if
others could see
what she could see,
beyond the hatred,
and the cruelty,
to the kindness,
the love
that was possible
for all,
for everyone.

If,
if only
they could see
a world made right,
then maybe
a few more
might cease their efforts
to make the one
we’re in
wrong.

That,
that she could write,
and so she did.

About Christina Anne Hawthorne

Alive and well in the Rocky Mountains. I'm a fantasy writer who also dabbles in poetry, short stories, and map making. My Ontyre tales are an alternative fantasy experience, the stories rich in mystery, adventure, and romance. Alternative fantasy? Not quite steampunk. Not quite gothic. In truth, the real magic is in those who discover what's within.
