Eye Contact

It was nothing but eye contact Because we haven't uttered a word That was all we could do to interact I prayed for the right decision from the lord Didn't matter how beautiful her eyes were Because they stabbed me in the heart….. Like a cutting edge sword It was nothing but eye contact Because honestly I was afraid to act Though I knew she wanted and expected me to But I had no courage to make it through It was nothing but eye contact I know she was disappointed in me But she had to forgive me Because a high school student could do what? Actually he anything could do not! It was nothing but eye contact But eventually I even lost it Hiding her eyes from me was a fact And that price I could never cost it! It was nothing but eye contact Though she tried many times….. To make a conversation I was avoiding her with no real explanation What made us apart and kept the separation Were my unreasonable fears and hesitation It was nothing but eye contact For months we didn't speak a word I was worrying about her and my feet got cold But she didn't care about people and was so bold Will she ever tear up that page or even fold? Will I ever get a chance to tell her…. What I should have told? It was nothing but eye contact But when she showed me her love I didn't know how to react The only thing I did was putting her off She may never know how for me that was tough Though I did that for her own sake I still blame myself for it…. As my own mistake! It was nothing but eye contact Will I ever forget her glamorous hazel eyes….. And her cute dimples when she smiles? Will I ever forget how funny she is and pretty? And how playful she is just like a little kitty! It was nothing but eye contact What I can never forget is our last look And how painful it was and how long it took I've been searching but…… Couldn't find out in any book About that way to say good bye! It was nothing but eye contact And our eyes had a pact Which was broken….. The moment I saw her eyes sad and red Since then our eyes never met And my heart knew it was the end It was my fault that I now regret The love that out of my hands slipped Because it was nothing but eye contact!
