Eyes
By MistressLynx
In the day, everything's blank,Reflections are all that prevail.Everything's there, and yet it's not,Shrouded by a misty veil.But as darkness descends,The night plays tricks on the mind.The heart, the soul of a friend,Becomes somewhat more defined.My gaze catches yours,Amid all these others, They make no difference,Not even a mother's.Oh, that you could onlySee beyond your sight!Look deeper, much deeper,Into the eyes of the night.Perhaps the you could seeThe things of my heartMy wish, my desire,That we'd never be apart.But we are blindedBy our physical eyes,So that we never learnWhere true sight lies.It resides in the heart, The soul, the core,It remains and wastes away,Ever more and more.Until there is nothingWith which to seeThe emptiness which growsInside of me.Loneliness becomesMy only friend,Something which will stayUntil the very end.But you could stop it!Oh, if only you try!If only you could learnTo use your mind's eye.You are my one, my only,This I know.For it's through your eyesThat your thoughts show.The body my beA wonderful thing to see,But look deeper, always deeper,To see the true me.
