In Your Eyes

In your eyes I see me for what I am
For what you make me believe.
I am greater than the greatest,
Far prettier than the girl in the mirror lets me see.
A smile that can move mountains.
Strength that can pick me up and all that hath fallen around me.
A voice that can soothe a crying baby.
A whisper that can silence the gods.
In your eyes you show me that I can be whatever I want to be in this great wide world.
At the very ends of my finger tips
is the end of hungry kids and the promise of world peace
No more poverty on the streets with every pace and beat of my feet
In your eyes I am limitless possibility.

From the bottom to the top of my heart and the depths of my soul
Is a love for someone I never knew I could find again.
But your eyes found it.
You pulled the love I have in me and surfaced it.
And now I am yours.

In my eyes you are perfect.
In my heart you are stained.
In my soul you are etched.
On my mind you are a constant.
Within my everything, you are forever.

Missing Your Lips

hope floats upon tiny wings that keeps my heart fluttering
from winter through to spring
tripping over my shoestrings you break my fall with your lips
your taste still lingers
