Eyes

You're sitting there.
So sad looking.
So broken.

I'm sorry.
I'm sorry that I can't help.
That I can't do anything.

You say that you're alright,
But your eyes...
They disagree.

They say it all.
You're beautiful eyes.
So full of sorrow.

I just want to make those eyes happy.
Just to make them bright.
Just this one time.

I want to hug you.
Hug you until you smile.
I know that I can't.

It's not my place.
It's not my job.
That's her job.

But those eyes.
I see them and I think of me.
That sounds so self-centered.

I see them and I remember how it feels.
I see those beautiful eyes
And something inside me ignites.

This fire.
A fire that wants to make you warm.
A fire that wants to show you love.

Just in those eyes.

A/N: Hey guys. This is about the same person as last nights poem. I feel like this is literal crap and I'm sorry for that. Until next time I guess. ~ Jo
