I hate your eyes
Their blue and their gold
Radiating from the deep pool
That is you
Every time I look at them
I'm reminded of what I cannot have
Of all that I may have once had
And all that I lost
And it hurts me
To a point where I cannot stand it
So I just turn and look away
But still, all I see is the blue
Looking deep into my soul
Searching for answers to questions
That I could never answer
For I'm asking the questions, too.
