Truth In Your EyesA 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 © 2013 Somber Eyes |
