Eyes

New poem I wrote over the last week. Some musings on stuff I've been thinking about and conversations I've had. Dedicated to anyone who's felt this way before or seen their friends' eyes look like this. Rather a different format than what I usually do. Feedback would be nice.

Eyes

Your eyes scare me…
So numb, so deathlike.
Show something in them!
Anger, hate, sadness,
Show something…
Anything.

Ah, now your eyes flicker.
Good.
Show something.
You’ll climb the heights
Again.
You will and they’ll be
Pure bliss.

Your eyes give
You away.
You don’t believe me.
You’re slowly dying
And see no hope.
But the depths are never
That deep.
There is always
A light, of some sort,
At the end.
Do not give up
Hope…

You don’t believe me,
Your eyes give
You away.
Your eyes scare me…
So numb, so deathlike.
You know this is
Happening.
You don’t know
What to do.
And so you
Fall back,
You let it.

Your eyes scare me…
So very numb…

These are some song lyrics that I've always really liked that I thought I'd share with you. And also a couple new poems, but I'm not going to tell you which are which. Hehe. Enjoy!

February Song

Where has that old friend gone
Lost in a February song
Tell him it won't be long
Til he opens his eyes, opens his eyes
Where is that simple day
Before colors broke into shades
And how did I ever fade
Into this life, into this life

And I never want to let you down
Forgive me if I slip away
When all that I've known is lost and found
I promise you I, I'll come back to you one day

Morning is waking up
And sometimes it's more than just enough
When all that you need to love
Is in front of your eyes
It's in front of your eyes

And I never want to let you down
Forgive me if I slip away
Sometimes it's hard to find the ground
Cause I keep on falling as I try to get away
From this crazy world

And I never want to let you down
Forgive me if I slip away
When all that I've known is lost and found
I promise you I, I'll come back to you one day

Where has that old friend gone
Lost in a February song
Tell him it won't be long
Til he opens his eyes
Opens his eyes

Numb

Pain, hurt, sadness.
Life is strong,
Too strong
Sometimes.
Heights with depths,
But depths so deep
That you aren’t sure
You’ll survive?

Mistakes, regrets, shame…
None of these.
Pain, sadness, yes.

Heart getting ripped
In two,
Having to make
A choice.

Love—is it worth
The Risk?
Yo sabo pero
No conozco.
I know but
I don’t know…
Anymore.

Numbness is all
There is.
Numbness and tears.

Love—is it worth
The Risk?
Yo sabo pero
No conozco.
I know but
I don’t know...
Anymore.

Pain, numbness.
Life is strong,
Too
Sometimes.

Un Dia Llegara

Las hojas secas caerán y cuando llegue abril,
Mi alma tocaras, me acercarás, vendrás por mí.
Después de tanta soledad, yo volveré a sentir.
Encontraré mi paz en ti.

Cuando se duerma la ciudad, y se despida el sol.
Te buscare otra vez, hasta alcanzar esta ilusión.
Te encontraré y me amaras así.
Y escucharé del silencio la voz del corazón,
Y la tormenta se calmara en tus brazos.
Vale la pena esperar por tu amor porque un día llegará.

Te encontraré y me amarás así.
Y escucharé del silencio la voz del corazón,
Y la tormenta se calmara en tus brazos.
Vale la pena esperar por tu amor el mañana.
Te abrazaré en el silencio,
Toda la vida esperé por tu amor.
Si ese día llega, se que vendrás a mí.
