Deep hazel, those warm eyes of yours
Sparkle at me, revealing a cosmos
Of thought and emotion
You gaze at me with that soft smile,
Much like a saint peers down
At her adoring patrons
It’s like you’re searching for something
In the unknown contours of my face,
The ocean shining dimly in my eyes
You keep smiling and looking,
Like you don’t know what that does to me
You keep showing me kindness after kindness,
A bittersweet realization that more
Will never be within my reach
The kindness that glimmers
In your bright eyes and serene smile,
Is really just a hidden cruelty
