Look deep into my eyes and tell me what do you see
Through those windows, those portals which allow glimmers of light
To pierce the darkness of my inner me
Come closer….tell me….. What do you see?
Do worlds of sadness and planets of pain
Orbit like satellites, dark celestials of shame
Do shooting stars of regret trace a trail full of hurt
Through an infinite blackness, an astrological desert
Come closer…tell me……What do you see?
Will the galaxy of feelings, anger and sighs
Gradually diminish like the receding tide
Or will I just wake and find they have gone
Will I ever feel the warmth of a returning sun
Come closer….tell me…what do you see?
Come closer….tell me….do you see me?
When I think of my universe, my very being,
Tears of fire map a path which have stopped me seeing
You had touched that which I thought laying dying
Gentle caresses of hope amidst dulcet tones of soft sighing
Come closer….tell me…what do you see?
Come closer….tell me….do you see me?
I felt your warmth and loving embrace
As your lips kissed bright stars, back into space
The hue of your eyes became the blue of my sky
Your smile and your whispers taught me not to ask why
.
You came closer, and told me, then set my soul free
You came closer, Kind Sir and you saw me!
