Brand new eyes

This is anything you want it to be, if only you will let it.

I see you, I hear you, I read your words,

I don't understand why you effect me this way,

All I can see are my own flaws,

Its like you are perfection incarnate.

Roses wilt at your looks,

Books stay closed because of your words,

But your kiss eludes me,

Dancing so close yet so far.

I can bring you to your knees,

Yet you do not see me,

I am but a shadow,

A leaf blowing past you in the wind.

Open your eyes and see me too,

Hold me close an never let me go,

As I have never let you go,

Brand New Eyes.
