Words unspoken, hung in between,
somewhere between our eyes,
Your piercing gaze, did you not mean,
or was it my surmise?
Was it just my surmise,
or was it a stare, few moments too long,
moments still short to decipher those eyes,
but long enough to inspire my song.
My song revolves around your complexity,
and the multiple layers you hide beneath,
would you banish me to an eternity
or would you reveal what you hide underneath?
What you hide underneath that impenetrable shell,
and yet, you crave for simplicity,
Or do you fear that it will break the spell
of our newfound felicity?
