How could you declare that
I was staring at you blankly
When behind these brown eyes
I have never felt so many
Conflicting emotions?
It was the first time I even
Dared to stare at you so long
For I knew it would be my last chance,
And it reminded me of why I
Feared your eyes so much.
Like all those times before,
Your eyes said what I wanted to hear
But was afraid of because
I could never elicit such
Intense feelings back to you.
While your eyes expressed the
Only truth I was willing to heed,
Your lips echoed those same sentiments
When they acted upon unstated emotions
Through endless passionate kisses.
