Analysis of IN YOUR EYES
In your eyes I see
the secret that lies,
behind the bold face
the side that cries.
I see a world
totally different,
the one built with care
and totally magnificent.
In your eyes I see
a stubborn kid,
who just wants to be appreciated
for everything he did.
I see a fierce
yet cold flame,
in those eyes
that never felt the same.
But now it's saw, not see
as we are miles apart,
and in your eyes i saw
a hidden yet a very beautiful part.
