Your eyes don't smile.

You have a smile that reaches not your eyes. You have a laugh that is warm, but it reaches not your heart. You have a teasing way about you, that holds me in thrall, But it reaches not your soul. You have a demeanor that is refreshing and calm, But it brings you no peace. You live for others, and yet have no one who could smooth your furrowed brow. If i could be granted one wish, It would be to see those beautiful eyes smile. If i could i would erase that frown. If i could i would hug your soul and bring you peace.

A life has been touched.

I know you didn't mean to. I know you didn't want to. But you touched a life. I know you are a rolling stone. But I know your heart is like a sponge I know you must absorb it all. And though you shouldn't have to, I know you carry it all, Yet through it all, You touched a life. I know you are a lone soldier, But I know you can be a knight in shining armour too, I know the blows you must have taken, Even though you say nothing at all, And even though you shouldn't have to, You bear the scars, Yet through it all, You touched a life. I know you are a tiger that prowls the forest in lone splendor. But I know you are the Bear that nurtures its own. I think I know the ambushes you must have repelled, And even though you are silent about them all, I think I know what you have lost, Yet through it all, You touched a life.
