Your Eyes

I take a look inside your eyes,

A daring quest I know.

I long to hear the lullabies,

And feel the fresh white snow.

I want to see your memories,

And all you try to hide.

I want to know the mysteries

And understand your pride.

I took a look inside your eyes,

It’s something I regret.

For all I saw was a disguise,

And nothing better yet.

I always longed to be like you,

You’ve always been so kind.

Now I’ve seen what you’re going through,

And I have changed my mind.

We look inside these people’s eyes,

Without a second thought.

We think their lives are clear blue skies,

When really, they are not.

I didn’t know you had been burned,

We have all told some lies.

I guess that’s all that I have learned

From looking in your eyes.
