Brown Eyes

It's something

I don't know what

But something's there

Something about him


It may be those eyes

Those deep brown eyes

Those eyes that hypnotize

Those eyes....


Or maybe it's his face

His soft mellow smile

His sun kissed skin

His dark hair...


His brown eyes


Or maybe it's his style

His way with words

His quiet tone

The way he looks at life


With those brown eyes


Maybe it's his character

His good-natured heart

His way of making me smile

when I have rain clouds over me

His way of reading me


With those brown eyes


It's all of that

All the beauty

All the love

Inside those brown eyes


Those beautiful, beautiful eyes


They kill me, those eyes

Tear my soul piece by piece every day

They're soft mists clouded with love

And yet they stab my heart


Knowing that I can't have those eyes for my own

That I can only look at them from a distance

I can't look deep into those eyes

Because they'll never be mine

And neither will any part of him


I'll only have those day to day glimpses

Of those eyes, those brown eyes
