37. Eyes

Brown spheres
Stare into mine
What beauty I see
What beauty divine

In your eyes
I see your dreams
Your goals, your fears
Your very being

What do you see?
Looking into mine
Do you see what you mean to me?
Do you see how I love you?

The window to your soul
Stares into mine
There is no escape
No way out of here

But I’d rather be here
Than anywhere else
Time stops
Hearts soar

Hold me close
Don’t let me go
Let time stand still
For an hour or so

But if time is stopped
Then how will we know
When the hour is gone?

So, hold me close
Don’t let me go
Let time stand still
As you stare into
My eyes

Your dreams
Your goals
Your fears
Here they are so real

Let me linger
In your eyes
Let me read into your life
Share with me your deepest secrets
Not with your voice
But with your eyes
