I was going to insert a poem here about a girl with brown eyes, but do you know how many really bad poems there are about brown eyed girls??? Ack! There’s some awful poetry out there, and I couldn’t do that to you. So, instead a little quote from Henry Miller, and you can tell he’s writing about a girl with brown eyes..he is, right?

I don’t know how to tell you what I feel. I live in perpetual expectancy. You come and the time slips away as if in a dream. It is only when you go that I realize completely your presence. And then it is too late. You numb me.

~Henry Miller
