These Eyes
My livid eyes are growing dull
Striped of all their boyish shine
By each kick, each small rejection
Even though i say im fine
These orbs once bright and full of life
Now stare on through into the night
As opaque gems lost their lustre
No love nor darling in my sight.
Hung with tears they show the pain
Of love lost, before its known
A single drop runs down my cheek
To grieve the fact im on my own
Striped of all their boyish shine
By each kick, each small rejection
Even though i say im fine
These orbs once bright and full of life
Now stare on through into the night
As opaque gems lost their lustre
No love nor darling in my sight.
Hung with tears they show the pain
Of love lost, before its known
A single drop runs down my cheek
To grieve the fact im on my own
