Marble Eyes

A follow-up to Universe. Marble Eyes describes the feeling of bending over backwards for someone and they don't notice at all.

Your marble eyes

And rosy nose

Seagrass hair

With silken clothes

Into my heart

Carved your name like a tree

Through your bright marble eyes

I'd just hoped that you'd see

That I fell to my knees

Gave my soul to your lungs

Hoping if I were a breeze

I could be blessed amongst

For I broke grounds for you

Sweet like golden sunshine

Broke the wide universe

Cause I want you for mine

& the stars as they turn

& the curls of the sea

Sitting listening close

Whispering, "did you see?"

For I fall from the sky

I will scream, I will cry

With the hopes that you'll see

With your bright marble eyes

It reminded me of someone caught up starring at someone a little bit like my boyfriend when he gets inspired.
