No, Not So

Open your eyes,
please, please,
just open them a little bit more,
a little bit longer than you would have before,
please, oh please,
not for me,
but for dark spaces we have yet to untether ourselves from,
for dark souls who want not from our optimism,

please, oh please,
will you,
only for a moment,
permit me a stolen smile,

and I would tell you,
I would extol the virtues of minding the gap here,

but I could not do much,
not if you could not open up a little bit,
just those eyes of yours,
just a bit more

no thanks would be in order
