Your Eyes

I’m staring at your eyes

Deeply, longingly, for a hundredth time now

Into those soft gray and rock blue marvel

I found my beach, in its peaceful lair

Your eyes…that glisten against the sea of your skin

They smile as your lips faintly curve at the happy thought

Those lips that I long to part with mine

As I yearn to lay my hands on your soft graying hair

Your eyes, like a pair of prism skies

Your eyes, they’re misty yet clear

They tell of stories, of yesterdays

Of age-old tales that I endlessly seek

They whisper of a lost love

Of pain, healing and forgiveness

Your eyes spell kindness

And filled my heart with some

I long to have those eyes

Stare back at me forever

Long for the love in those

And be all mine

I’m staring at them, now

For a thousand times and a million

I close my eyes, and there they are still

In your eyes, I dream…

In your eyes, I live…
