_Eyes_
November 24, 2011
These sad eyes
Will not cry
Never a tear
will be shed
I’ll be the one
to turn away
For this child
I never wanted
So pure and innocent
She’s tainted
in your arms
My blue eyes see
Your ocean eyes
leaking the sea
to me
Beg me to stay
This is what you
wanted
this child
you bare to me
This innocent girl
with no father
Brown eyes
Sparkling and pure
I don’t want her
But you did
Take her
No tears
For you
when you’re dead
to me
Not when I’ll say good bye
I’ll never see
that daughter
again
My blue eyes
Will never
look upon
Yours or hers
forever tainted
dirt like brown
