Brown Eyes

They reach out and took me by the hand,
they confuse me...
They warmed me in the cold,
I don't know them anymore.
I went somewhere new...
I saw them filled with love,
with anger, with hate.
They shattered my heart.
They told me secrets,
showed me answers,
threw me in circles...
Brown eyes ...that brought light to my life,
that pulled me up ...out of that shell.
Eyes; that shone with intelligence,
that wove sweet torture,
that lit up with happiness,
that danced with laughter,
That reflected abandonment.
Eyes...that tore me apart
Without trying.
I saw them reflect my unshed tears.
Saw them shine with resignation, with
Loneliness and fatigue, and i felt.
My attempts to brighten them failed.
They continued to shine, yes...
Golden and proud, highlighted
Like molten honey.
Yet the dark still remains within them,
cold...never to be washed away.
I'm here whenever you need me...i haven't a clue why...
Maybe it's that odd link that still binds us...
It's all I have left to offer.
Take it or reject it...it doesn't matter anymore.
