Stardust in your eyes

by silent turbulence   Jan 5, 2010


A moment sometimes,
Is all it takes to define your life,
It grabs you by your pulse
Leaves you mesmerized
That was then I felt the magic
Was that stardust in your eyes?

For me, you were my mid summer nights dream,
Surreal, yet true
You held my hand when my vision was blur,
You were my superhero; in disguise
I knew I was safe, tucked into your arms,
Was that concern in your eyes?

Over time, you changed my life,
Resurrected me from the ground
You directed me, while I was lost,
Like a night adorned with fireflies,
I had never been happier,
Was that love in your eyes?

Somewhere in it all,
Love was lost,
You said it wasn't even there,
I shed silent tears, veiled my cries,
Shattered; I stood there and you walked away...
Without any regret in your eyes.

I picked up the shards
Of what used to be a beautiful picture
And buried it somewhere in me
You stood on the other end,
Watching my every move,
Yet, you couldn't meet my eyes

The stardust in your eyes;
Was just vision that was blur
Your superhero costume was overdue on rent.
The concern was your act of deceit
The love like you said was never really there,
I finally accepted by defeat.

Yet, now you say, you're regretting it all,
Promises of catching me and then letting me fall,
You say it's the shame, which is why you can't meet my eyes.
I wouldn't still have you back; I have severed those ties,
My heart still bleeds, but there is a smile on my face,
For, this time I am sure, they were tears in your eyes!
