When you look in my eyes what do you see?
Do you see the green of the grass dancing in the wind?
Do you see the ambers of a dying fire in the distance?
What do you see if you study my eyes?
Can you see the emotions I’ve been hiding so well?
Can you see the sadness that I hide for others sake?
How do you feel when you look into my eyes?
Do you feel loved and cherished?
Or do you feel sad and rejected?
My eyes have many secrets.
But those secrets you must find
By looking into my eyes
So tell me,
What do you see?
When you look into my eyes?
