In My Eyes

In my eyes
Are the hopes I had
But now I cry
My feelings so sad

In my tears
Are the dreams I once lived
But now, all I have is fear

All this protection to give

In my fingers
Remains your touch
But its only a linger
Of reality, that I miss so much

In my heart
Is the love I felt
But it didn't get to start
In church, I once knelt

In my essence
I can't let you go
But your love lessens
Your touch cannot show

In my poems
Are tracers of your name
To everyone else, I have to show them
But hopefully you can pick out my shame

In my dancing
Your soft words resonate
I can't help but glancing
Into the emptiness, so desolate

In my weep
The events of late circulate
I don't want to sleep
But it's already to late

In my dreams
Your face is there
I'm stitched to the seams
With conclusions on why this is fair

In my letters
I try to write these feelings
But slowly, my love bitters
I don't want this to be part of the healing

On my lips
Your name is never mentioned
This gives many tips
On why I make no commotion

From my side
I let you wonder
These things I could never decide
But now I have left to ponder

From my hand
Yours slips away
The hourglass has no more sand
I can't make you stay

From my heart
You dislodge your claim
All my pain began to start
You, I cannot blame

In my ears
I can hear your voice
Now it can only sear
This was your choice

I don't want to regret
All the things that have happened
I don't want to forget
But now my heart is saddened

I can't help what destiny did
That made this precious gift wrong
The closing of the metaphorical lid
The ending of a love song
