Flames in your eyes

by Unrequited   Apr 5, 2005


I don’t understand
all that fire inside you
i thought we were doing well
and that you loved me too

our life was so perfect
so bold and so true
now all i have is sadness
and a fading picture of you

you lit up my darkness
with your gorgeous eyes
now they’re filled with fire
and i can only wonder why

the sun is black
the stars are now gray
you’ve left me alone
now i’ve lost my way

i wish you would tell me
what you’re feeling inside
just let it all out
don’t leave anything behind

but none of this matters
for you left and said goodbye
as your eyes danced with fire
and left me here to die

you left me here
with my heart set aflame
now i lie in the ground
with only me to blame

i don’t understand
why you left me that day
but now i’m at peace
and i wouldn’t have it any other way

    Beautiful work...love how you put the element of fire into this on as well...and using it with the eyes...lovely. From looking at the other titles of your poetry I see you've others with fire/flame put in there somehow...very nice trend....off to read more :)
    Oh, and great rhyming in this one.
