Time has no eyes
to lift its lids
open wide
and realize
the outer joy
hides
the inner demise.
Judgment arose
turned up its nose
to criticize
the part of my heart
encaptured, enraptured
in your pale blue eyes.
God, there’s not a thing
I wouldn’t do
to guide you,
to try to
help you
survive–
to see the joy in being alive.
But that’s the thing:
Time has no eyes.
Kailani Norwell has a big mouth, a big heart, a big brain (metaphorically speaking), a big fucking ego, and an even bigger take on everything and anything. She has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge–to learn all that she can–and for personal development. While she dreams larger than life and encourages others to follow what puts sparks in their eyes, she typically plays incredibly small. She has indebted herself for America’s most expensive therapist–a bachelor’s and master’s degree in clinical psychology. Writing is her passion. It’s what ignites her soul. It is her most sincere form of expression. She doesn’t think she’s to write the next great American novel, but she’s to write something.
