When it seems as though nobody really cares,
and the people you know just turn away.
Those you love should be there for you
and you are lost for so many words to say.

The comforting color of the embers glow,
it's golden light filling the room.
Lost for words as you stare at the flame,
It's light! brightening the gloom.

Ebony eyes that shines like a pearl,
Looking deep into the dark cold night.
what wonders have those eyes seen,
As they shine so iridescently bright.

Mysteries the eyes portray and see,
the wonders in my soul so deep.
Never telling the stories that they learn,
until I fall fast asleep.
Sheila.
