Why Do You Hide Those Beautiful Eyes? in POETRY

To someone I knew… a long time ago
To someone I loved… before love was known
To someone who grew… through life’s highs and lows
To someone whose destiny… is yet unknown

To someone who knows… the importance of truth
To someone whose hidden heart… still, bleeds hope
To someone whose searched… the depths of their soul
To someone who deserves… the sanctity of home

To someone whose dreams… have gone up in smoke
To someone who has always… felt alone
To someone who can’t quit… because of the unknown
To someone whom true love… has never been shown

To someone who sees me… through their eyes
In the mirror
Every night

To someone that has survived… life

With a wounded heart, and an empty hand.
