Charlotte Russe

Hair of honey brown and gold
Simply gorgeous truth be told
Eyes of steel gray, powder blue
Pierce my heart that's what they do 
Rendered speechless at their sight 
Look right through me with a light
That bares my soul, unspoken words
In silence thunder, though unheard
But if you trace out my tattoo
It's then you'll hear it play for you
My testimony sans fanfare
That proves "you know" is really there
