The second sight was far better than the first
Through your eyes I could see so much you never had to say
But when you speak and say my name, my heart stops
I could listen to you talk about nothing all day
Your eyes, those eyes, they mirror mine
I like looking at yours far better, though
They searched me and didn't come up short
Because the words you said had me ready to go
Anywhere at anytime, any place but here
Somewhere far better it would be you and I
Because when I look at you I see nothing else
And I'm willing to bet I wouldn't bother to try
When I see you I light up so bright
A smile stretched from ear to ear
But I like yours far better than mine
I want that smile right now, right here
Through your eyes I could see so much you never had to say
But when you speak and say my name, my heart stops
I could listen to you talk about nothing all day
Your eyes, those eyes, they mirror mine
I like looking at yours far better, though
They searched me and didn't come up short
Because the words you said had me ready to go
Anywhere at anytime, any place but here
Somewhere far better it would be you and I
Because when I look at you I see nothing else
And I'm willing to bet I wouldn't bother to try
When I see you I light up so bright
A smile stretched from ear to ear
But I like yours far better than mine
I want that smile right now, right here
Far Better indeed!!! You are gaining strength and power in your words and works. Dad is going to read your poems when he gets back from the animals. You are talented and gifted. Not saying this because your my daughter but because of your work. I don't have the words to express how amazing your poems are. And how with every new one you hone your talent!!
