Big Bright Eyes

Anonymous


 

What would you do if you could go back in time, back in life?
Looking through those big bright eyes again.
Letting joy sink in deep again,
Letting your heart swell with love again.

What would you do to see what she saw years ago?
Looking through those big bright eyes again.
Feel the dreams in every breath she takes,
Feel the mud with every step she takes.

What do you miss since she left your mind?
Looking through those big bright eyes again.
Joy making her whole warm soul pulsate,
Joy being the shadow that carries all the weight.

What are all the scars you’ve gained?
Looking through those big bright eyes again.
Wondering about the bliss she felt,
Wondering about the dreams she held.

What would you let her soul endure?
Looking through those big bright eyes again.
Blocking all the tears she’ll cry,
Stopping all the screams at night.

What happened to the joy she felt?
Looking through those big bright eyes again.
Blocking out the light she was,
Stopping what she could have had.

Why let guilt rule again?
Let yourself look
through those big bright eyes again.
