In your eyes I cry

I see past the looks that control my will to stay away,

the light in your eyes brings tears to my soul.

I am nothing without you nothing to live for,

you are the winter in which I journey to find.

My heart in your hands so warm as the cold steals my soul,

your kiss grants me life, your love blesses me in death.

I have cried so many nights away from you I am about to fall apart,

all this feeling in my emotions, all this life in twisted fate.

I cry in your eyes alone just to feel the light you see,

blessed in each tear I taste, forsaken in each embrace denied.

I know now the pain beyond anything felt before,

alone in the night I pray for the end to come to me now.

I am here for you in the shadows of lust and love inside,

crying for your warmth to comfort this dying man I am.

I am here for you in these dreams of light pushing love aside,

caring for the night in the eyes you bless this world with.

You have heard before you see past the soul in me you find,

yet when you look at me I know, it is my heart you always feel.

I may have run from you in the past life hoping to find a way,

to a love so pure in times left cold and empty from my tears.

I am now here in front of you crying for your love,

will you take me now from this fall of hope and love me in your eyes?
