Your Eyes Are Gone

Ten thousand words in your picture,
five thousand in your eyes.
They look like blue crystals,
and give me butterflies.
The words wrap around my heart
and quiet my soul.
From the very start,
was that part of my goal?
No more words in your picture,
no more in your eyes.
I say I mean it,
but it's just a disguise.
So do I really love you?
Well, I don't know.
That's just something
I normally don't show.
