My Eyes

March 27, 2014

my eyes burn

they want to cry

but the tears,

they just stay bottled up inside

scared, alone

but people pass by

sending shivers down my spine

trying to speak the words in my head,

they don't come out,

or they do

but not right

why is it so hard

so say what I feel

and make it sound right

I love you, you know

you love me too

but there's more:

I'll love you forever

but that you don't know,

might never

even after forever
