Forever In Your Eyes

First time as I met your eyes, found them gateway to your heart
Observing them I was mesmerized, it was not easy to look apart
Rejoiced my gaze and I have to confess, it was love at first sight
Everlasting memories eyes did  create, in  silent and  starry night
Voiceless was I, my heart  raced  while I tried to unlock  my gaze
Enticed by your  eyes, I conceded to be lost  in an endless  maze
Regrets from life  melted away, and I forgot my  old doleful days 

In the years gone by, though youth is lost  but our love has grown 
Nestled in love's warmth secrets of my heart your eyes have known

Your miraculous eyes  are so sincere, they  don't know  how to lie
Ocean of love for you I feel,  you  shall stay in my heart  until I die 
Unforgettable is our past, beautiful  years we have  spent together
Refreshed are those memories, filled  with happiness  and laughter

Even today when I look at your eyes I sail deep and get immersed
Your eyes,  so intoxicating, I find them perfect for my poetic verse 
Everlasting is my love  for you, you came as a blessing  in disguise
Seal your eyes for sleep now, when they open, it will be my sunrise.
