One came with piercing eyes
dark as the raven
He brought golden promises
But his heart was fleeting
and he crept silently away
cloaked by night's deception
and betrayal's companion...greed.
One came with endless eyes
blue as the summer sky
He brought me dreams bought on sale
pain made from scratch and
lust born from envy.
He slammed the door -- I couldn't knock
Choked my thoughts and I couldn't breathe
and upon leaving...
never did he say a word.
One came with eyes
brown like a child's bear
He brought security and contentment
hapiness never found in fairytales
He was honest and kind
He stayed near my heart
bound by promise and vow
Then one came with penetrating eyes
blue oceans in my dreams
my soul's journey,
my heart's companion,
my mind's inspiration
He held my words so deeply
He brought one shell from the land
because he said he could not bring me
his whole island
