About This Poem
Through Your Eyes
There it is again… that messed up feeling
that somehow always comes back to taunt
and laugh at my insecurities
It stabs again, re-breaks my heart
But then you come and say those words
that reach way down into my soul
You whisper things I need to hear
Remind me that I’m valuable
Here we go again… those memories
of too much wine and strangers’ lust
while needing love and security
I learned to give but never trust
But then you come and take your time
You never rush, nor push nor pull
With gentle words, you blow my mind
With you, I feel so comfortable
Here they come again… those lying thoughts
that broke my spirit and shattered dreams
I’m not as pretty as the girls on the screen
Not as sultry as the girls in the magazines
But then you come and call me lady
and that’s really how you make me feel
I’ve never felt this way before
You make me feel so beautiful
Quand mes pensées me mentent,
Je veux me voir à travers tes yeux
When my thoughts tell me lies
I want to see through your eyes
