The Healer Needs Healing
The Healer Needs Healing
Glistening sultry eyes under half closed lids
Smooth flushed skin and tanned good looks
A sexy half open mouth as you swallow
Trying hard to hide your sensitive inner soul.
Then the shutter comes down the window is closed
I long to see that side of you again
To reach out and touch your face
To wipe that hurt away
To watch a smile reach those cloudy eyes
To hold you close and give you warmth
To chase the cold away.
To watch that hard shell melt away
Those eyes that glisten will glisten with joy
I really long to see that happiness bubble through
Its natural, its you
The beauty God gave you
Let it shine through
Its in the sound of your voice,
A sound that warms me and reaches my heart.
The look in your eyes that touches without touching
A gift of love in a glance.
It scares me.
I so want to believe there is something there
But just back away in despair.
What if my instincts are wrong
And there is nothing
Rather be safe than get hurt
Pain like an arrow through the heart.
