The Pain Hidden In Her Eyes

Pain Hidden In Her Eyes I look into the eyes Of the most beautiful person in the world I see life, love and a giving spirit I can also see a shadow so dark And pain so deep no words can ever fully describe Wounds that time may never truly heal I wish I had the words to banish the shadows Ease the pain and the ability To heal her wounded soul In those eyes that always bring joy to my life I wish I could wipe her tears away and Make her forget all the bad memories Just wipe them away like footprints in the sand After high tide has come and gone I know; however, that I am no god No omnipotent being with the power To change the past So I pray every day that I can In some way bring just a little joy Into her life Ease some of her pain and to let her know That there is still a rock to hang on to A safe harbor in case of a storm And; yes, someone who does truly care Without reservations or demands Who loves her and would be totally lost Without her in this otherwise empty life.
