Look in My Eyes

by gentlegirl

Look into my eyes
tell me what you see
flames of passion
or hint of a plea

Look into my eyes
they tell you a lot
if only you knew
How much they forgot

Look into my eyes
so warm and so cold
which have you done
the stories untold

Look into my eyes
of passion and fire
was that your deed
the need of desire

Look into my eyes
the wonder and awe
of life and its angst
full irony to draw

Look into my eyes
of deceit and pain
cracks in a heart
filled with shame

Look into my eyes
so tender and true
see them looking
so honest at you

Look into my eyes
as you walk away
leaving the tears
of sweet yesterday

Look into my eyes
now going dim
the final light gone
all due to him

Look into my eyes
no more do they see
as your body does sob
too late for a plea
