Listened To Your Eyes

Why didn't you tell me

when I was there to help?

Were you scared,

I wouldn't believe?



When I was with you,

I would have helped.

I never even saw,

what he was doing to you.



Such a beautiful person,

and I never saw your pain.

SO busy with my own life,

I missed what was ruining yours.



I failed where I usually don't,

I missed the signs, I'd seen before.

You never opened your mouth,

but if I'd listened to your eyes I'd have known.



If I'd listened to you eyes,

I'd have heard your screams.

If I'd listened I wouldn't have failed.

I failed you then, now I make amends.



You my wonderful friend,

shouldn't fear what he is already done,

if I ever find him,

the pain he caused will become his own.
