When life squeezes lemon juice in your eyes
When life squeezes lemon juice in your eyes, it's a shock. It gives you a shock. It stings , you cry. Rubbing at your eyes to try and get your sight back. Rub, rub, rub. Your eyes still remain sore.
One day, you find the cold water. splash your face. Holding it to your face. Hoping to feel full refreshed, but that dull ache remains. remnants of that lemon juice. You splash again, take a deep breath.
You dry your face , keeping it buried in the towel, soft and comforting. Wanting to stay comforted. hiding your eyes.
You take the towel away. Eyes sensitive from the cold rinse and warm, slightly suffocating towel. A lungful of deep breath, you are ready to see again.
