Anyone else would close their eyes
Turn away
Find something to pull their attention
In a world where attention in so quickly pulled
Anyone else would have seen me
But not seen me
A blur in the background of their blurred life
But you see me
In your eyes, I see me
Not the me I am trying to be
But the me I am
The me who screams at the world to stop and see
There is acceptance there
Longing and warmth there
Promises of what could be
What will be, there
Because in your eyes I see certainty
A knowing that this is it
This is the one thing I need
More than my own blurred life
Because you are not anyone else
You are
I am
We are here, now, always
