I stand here screaming your name in silence
I laugh when you tell a joke when really I am drowning in this quagmire
Do you see that you are killing me
Why is it your love I desireCan you feel my love unspoken
I'm the mime who is open to interpretation
This is a game of charades
Will you cause my self destructionI feel your eyes pass over me
I dare to sneak a peak
Those azure eyes latch on
It's only for a second but volumes they speakThey crush me and lift me
Show love with underlying hatred nightmarish
Those are the eyes I see when sleep finally beckons
I always will love them and cherishThat two second lock
Is all that I would need
To keep this flame alive
Those eyes I will never leaveDo you hear me scream internal
When your gaze falls on me
Those eyes are so infernal
Please don't do this maliciously.
