In Her Eyes
Sad Eyes, you’re lonely now,
nursing a pain that tears your heart;
but this too shall pass,
and a new life you will start.
Twinkle Eyes, you’re blushing now,
uneasy with your date;
but this too shall pass,
and you’ll find your perfect mate.
Glowing Eyes, you’re wedding now,
excited for this day;
but this too shall pass,
and you’ll be on your way.
Bright Eyes, you’re happy now,
living a fairytale come true;
but this too shall pass,
as the moments always do.
Sad Eyes, you’re lonely now,
nursing a grief that fills your soul;
but this too shall pass,
and your heart will remain whole.
Blank Eyes, you’re empty now,
staring back at me no more;
but this too shall pass,
and I will shut this open door.
