do you like seeing these brown eyes cry?
because you hurt me so well
you know you do

once upon a time you made these eyes
smile
when you did the opposite of now

these eyes have been through too much
far too many tears
blinking blindly against them
willing them to stop
the soft glaze that overcomes them
when a memory of you passes

these eyes have not seen enough smiles
the twinkle, the light
that fills them from within
moving on down to my heart

i remember a time i looked into your
eyes
and i thought for sure i saw something there
you turned away,
looking to the side
i too turned, slowly,
downcast

i dont know what youre thinking anymore
i cant see your eyes
when youre so far away

maybe its a good thing though
because my eyes dont lie
and are you sure you want to know
what they say
anyways?
