You had me

The light in your eyes 
shines so bright. 
Dare I say, it puts the stars to shame. 
The secrets they hold 
are a bittersweet plight.
In these eyes I've seen 
Heaven and Hell 
And dear, the deepest of blues 
hide them both so well.
I've seen these eyes laugh, 
and I've seen these eyes cry.
In those eyes I could see 
the rest of my life!
And now I only see 
traces of what used to be.
I used to get lost 
in the love that pooled in your eyes 
but to see a glint of that now, 
Is to my greatest surprise. 
Some days, I want you back so badly 
but then again.... 
you had me.
