Hazel Eyes

I look into her hazel eyes and see everything that lies beneath.
I see all her happiness and all her pain. 
The secrets that she shares only with me.
Secrets that bring her both joy and sadness. 
I see her pain and wish that I could feel it for her. 
I see her hazel eyes water and shed tears
As I kiss her tears away.
I hold her in my arms, sure to never let anything harm her.
I make sure to never let her go. 
She tells me that she never will.
She looks at me with her hazels eyes, 
Showing me how much she loves me.
Her eyes tell so much, 
And so much that I wish to know.
Knowing that in time I will know everything.
Until then all I can do is protect her.
Hold her in my arms, kiss her soft lips
And stare into her beautiful hazel eyes.
