When I see your eyes

Today brought emotions and tumult inside me,
You brought be happiness, I thought you were the key,
I had my thoughts set, my mind was resolved,
But now it's all gone, my security dissolved.
Now all is unstable, is it even worth a fight?
What am I feeling when I think of you at night?
I need to give up, I'm chasing a dream,
But I can't let go! You're my steady beam.
I am bound by my love, yet betrayed by my mind,
Will it ever be gone, will I be freed from this bind?
I just wish it was simple, straight-forward and candid,
I wish I could know so I'm not left here stranded.
I'm so far away from where you are,
What's happening in that place that's so afar?
I just wish you'd know that you are loved!
I appreciate everything about you, my beloved.
I'd do anything to see you smile,
If it'd make you happy, I'd swim the Nile.
As long as your content, I'll be fine,
I just want you happy, you don't have to be mine.
I'll bear the heartache and face the pain,
If it's another girl that in your heart reigns.
I just have this love that I can't deny!
It screams inside, can you hear its cry?
Day after day, night after night, it yearns and longs and dreams for you,
I am alone in my feelings, they're my only crew.
No matter how long the poem, or how long the ballad,
Nothing will express my true love that's valid.
The words will keep running, like a stream that never dries,
How do I describe how my heart stops when I see your eyes?
When I see your eyes...

  2. Really? I was just upset this afternoon and needed to express all of the million things I was feeling. Is it really all that good?

  3. Um yes, yes it is. Lately I can't get of my poetry to flow. This flows like water (haha get it?!). :D Lame joke, but I'm serious.
