Truth In Your Eyes

Truth In Your Eyes

A Poem by Somber Eyes

It all started so fast
I should have known it couldn't last
The passion that came on so strong
Faded just as quickly, now it's gone
Once the passion dissipated
Your love for me turned into hatred
And every day, I try so hard not to cry
When I see the truth in your eyes

You always find something to do
That ensures I can't spend time with you
At first, I thought it was coincidence
But now I can't ignore the mounting evidence
You leave as soon as I get home
And you tell me you need to be alone
I wish I knew this all before
I never would have shown up at your door

Every time I ask what's wrong
You say the same thing -- "I am fine"
But I know better, and I can see
The truth when I look into your eyes

I see the truth in your eyes
And it cuts through all the lies
Your eyes do not deceive
I see what you really think of me
I don't know what made you stay
If, all along, you felt this way
But now it's time to pack your bags and leave
Now it's time to walk away from me

Sleeping side-by-side in bed
No love is shared between us, instead
Indifference is all that's there
Not for one single second does it feel like you care
Now, we're just strangers living together
And familiarity is the only tether
So I guess it's time to cut the line
It doesn't make sense to waste any more time

All the time we spent together
Will haunt me for now and forever
As I question every spoken line
Now that I've seen the truth in your eyes

I see the truth in your eyes
And it cuts through all the lies
Your eyes do not deceive
I see what you really think of me
I don't know what made you stay
If, all along, you felt this way
But now it's time to pack your bags and leave
Now it's time to walk away from me

Pack your bags, it won't take long
And I'll try my best to be strong
I'm trying so hard not to cry
Now that I've seen the truth in your eyes

I see the truth in your eyes
I'm the one whom you despise
Your hatred's clear to see
Now I know what you really think of me
It's time to say goodbye
And I know that you won't cry
So let's not waste another day
Just pack your bags and walk away

Pack your bags and walk away
Pack your bags and walk away
Pack your bags and walk away
Walk away
