Iridescent

In your eyes I see the world shadowed lost, and cold
Reaching out for the comfort of someone to hold
In your smile I feel the sun 
Drying up my tears until there are none 
Every touch of your hand
Seems more than my body can withstand 
Can you feel my love for you
Even though I'll never break through
Never will I forgive you or ever pretend 
That your iridescent soul doesn't have me until the end
