Eyes Don'T Lie

When I look in your eyes 
I can see the pain
Pain, I caused you years ago
Makes me feel I shouldn't remain

The tears that rolled from your eyes 
Leaving many streaks behind
Yet, to this day, you had me stay
For the love in your heart I find 

Even though there is pain
I see the love there, too
You gave me a second chance
I never deserved it from you

Another thing I see
As you hold me tight 
I see a difference 
They shine so bright

Your eyes will never lie
They tell how you truly feel

It is easy to forgive, harder to forget, but everyone does deserve a second chance. In the end all we have is that love, feel it soothe the pain.

I am glad he gave me a second chance and I did him, too. Hopefully we can work everything out.
