Eyes that welcome to your sprawling mind Words that travel gentle as the wind Soft yet steady, you grew with time There truly was no wall you could not climb Still I hoped telling you of my shadow Wouldn’t be too much to bestow After trying, but lacking the words to say I knew there had to be another way Already claiming your lips with lust I hoped you were someone I could trust So I bore my truth into you with my eyes And prayed you wouldn’t be my demise

My eyes say what my mouth can't
Eyes that welcome to your sprawling mind Words that travel gentle as the wind Soft yet steady, you grew with time There truly was no wall you could not climb Still I hoped telling you of my shadow Wouldn’t be too much to bestow After trying, but lacking the words to say I knew there had to be another way Already claiming your lips with lust I hoped you were someone I could trust So I bore my truth into you with my eyes And prayed you wouldn’t be my demise
