Eurydice To My Orpheus
Each word I pen it’s all for her
Some crafted muse that exudes hope
A tempting promise of what could be
To her these words won’t be wasted
I hope she hears them
Those eyes that instill confidence
Those lips that sing words of praise
Those hands that have touched this soul
Those ears I hope will be in my direction
I hope she hears it
Whether it be an old flame that burned out long ago
Or some coffee house waitress that has to smile
None will inspire me like she has
And to some fleeting chance that this might happen
I hope she hears me
