People in Your Eyes - New Mexico Blues

A Poem by klewis
"

Who says a love poem has to be about a person?

"
As I leave I wave goodbye
Afraid to ring on false a note
I never get to give to you
The love locked in my throat

What will I do with this strange place
trapped in unfamiliar skies?
I want to run right back to you now!
I don`t know these people
I don`t know these eyes

I`m sorry that they`re taking me away
And the distance between us will be far
But I cannot let them make me forget
Just how close we are

Your skies will not cry for my departure
(As I`d like to fantasize)
Nor for the wait between my return
To the people in your eyes
