Love In Her Eyes

Love In Her Eyes

A Poem by Meghan

Two years ago your eyes shown 
With a kind of light I wish I understood.
Happiness captured in flecks of blue, 
Always true, but the truth is not all it should be

I can remember the day I met you
Your shirt didn't match your shoes and I told you so
That night we kissed underneath the moon
You said how did I get to be so lucky?
What I didn't say was I felt lost there.

And always I find that I can pretend to love you
and I can pretend to love someone else too
but every time I feel something new
I push and I fight I scream and I bite
but always I'm stuck here waiting
for my soul with love in her eyes.
 
Last year your eyes shown
with a kind of light I understood
Happiness hiding the fleeting truth
still flecked with blue, but sadder then they should be
I'm sorry that I felt so empty

And slowly I found that I can't love you
and that was just something that was not fair to you
so I had to let your whole heart go 
had to give it to a better home
I can have it back when I'm done waiting
For my soul with love in her eyes

Absolute brilliance. Took me a while to get through it, many pauses of amazment making it linger on beautifully. One of the better pieces I've read in a long time. Wow how many I had to read to finally stumble upon this gem.

Very, very good. You did a terrific job with this piece.
