In My Eyes

by Andrea   Nov 17, 2004


In my eyes,
Tell me what you see.
There is more there
Than the color green.

Look deeply,
And never forget.
Cause this will be the last time
You say we ever met.

The days are short,
But to you they’re long.
Nothing will replace
The memory where you belong.

There is more than
You will ever know.
But I will always try
To not let it show.

In my eyes,
You can feel the sorrow.
Then you know why
I don’t want to live tomorrow.

Stare and reminisce,
Remember the good times,
Even though there were few,
And hear the harmony chime.

When it does,
That will be my time to go.
And since this is our last,
Do not let the pain show.

As I turn to leave,
A tear falls from my eye,
You touch my shoulder,
I run and leave you behind.

Around me is white fog,
But I continue to run.
Now fading into darkness
As I hide from the one.

But there is nowhere to hide.
Eyes surround me, wherever I go.
Green eyes…my eyes
They’re watching me now.

I pause and see a light.
From a far, it looks like the moon.
I come closer and it’s a crystal
Humming a familiar tune.

I gaze and see a reflection.
It is you holding a rose and crying.
Carelessly, the petals become wet,
And you wonder why I was lying.

The real feelings I felt,
Somehow you just knew.
I tried to hide them deep enough
But you knew my love was true.

In my eyes,
Hidden behind my grief and fears,
You saw my love,
And now I cry a river of tears.

The stream of water
Gleams in the night,
And reflects the moon
That shines so bright.

The rainbow is faint
Yet the pastels glow.
I realize my love is
Continuing to grow.

My cries have stopped
And I want to go back to you.
The crystal shows you’re gone
But I will be there soon.

Again, I run through the dark
Then, amidst the fog.
But now my eyes
They no longer taunt.

I am back to the place
Where I left you alone.
I look down and
A puddle of water is shone.

Your darling rose
Is floating around.
Abandoned like me
We will never be found.

In my eyes,
A tear silently creeps.
You are gone. I am lost.
And now I will forever weep.

**Sorry if this is confusing. My imagination went a little too creative...hehe**
