It's In My Eyes

I know it seems inevitable.

By Erin ShieldsPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

I know it seems inevitable.

I know it seems un-deliverable.

But you gotta know inside.

It's got a spark of light.

Tinder and flint..reignite?

Will you take me tonight?

Reunite,

love I can't

deny nor hide.

Burns inside.

Will you keep my flame alive?

Seems like it's all but gone..

tell them they got it all wrong,

you're gonna be the one.

Just try, one more time..

I'm not gone,

no lost causes

here tonight.

Guarding

it with my life

flames alive

it's in my eyes.

They can spin

all their lies

how I've died,

waste of time

trying to revive.

I promise

I'm inside.

Alive.

Guarding,

with all my might

staying up all night,

never will I let the light

out of my sight.

Sitting, waiting,

patiently nurturing.

I know it in my heart,

my mind, every time;

dies down, brought back..

You can try, despite,

I'll go on with spite.

Til tinder, flint, reignites..

It's in my eyes

my eyes..
