Your Eyes
They say the eyes are the windows to the soul
The truth can always be seen I’ve been told.
But no one has eyes so expressive and bold
As he whom the strings of my heart does hold.
Your eyes are so beautiful; your eyes are so filled
With all the emotions and love that you give
Your eyes tell your story, they tell it quite well
Of a boy who is so perceptive, unassuming, and stealth.
They tell of the hurt, they show us the pain
That life has bestowed upon you, such a shame
For your life should be perfect and right
Not filled with the anguish you valiantly fight.
Your eyes tell of loneliness
Your eyes tell of grief
Your eyes so expressive
Of the pain that runs deep.
My hope is that one day your eyes will be full
Of excitement and wonder only true love can fuel.
For I wish you passion and happiness despite
All the things in your world not flawlessly right.
For if anyone deserves happiness
Darling it’s you
The world is your oyster
The pearl shiny and new.
Behind Blue Eyes
Behind blue eyes you can’t see the pain
Of love gone wrong and heartache
Memories of you drive me insane
Especially at night lying in bed awake.
Behind blue eyes are tears waiting to be shed
For all the things lost and unable to reclaim
The thoughts of you are constantly in my head
Things that were and how we’ll never be the same
Behind blue eyes is the love we shared
And the hope of a love that can again be
When the healing is done and hearts are bared
The tears will dry just wait and see.
