His dark eyes

I see them now. Those dark pretty eyes. His dark pretty eyes.

Such knowing and beautiful eyes,

Hypnotizing me with every blink.

Sometimes I wonder what he might think.

*

His dark eyes seep and slither through me,

Hunting for something,

Hunting for me. I know he'll find me. His dark eyes found my secrets, They found my fears, they found my love.

*

His dark eyes, the most beautiful of eyes, Saw me. The me no one even bothered to see. His dark eyes healed me, They loved me, He loved me.

*

Those pretty dark eyes Are my lover’s eyes. His pretty dark eyes

Will never utter to me any lies.

They calm me still, and stop my cries.

I know God has given me a wonderful prize.
