Your eyes

Pin Lim 1982 (Montreal)



I don t remember how it came to be…
The moment the first time your eyes said hello to me
I didn’t know what to do… except at least get your name
All I know from that moment…I knew I wasn’t the same

I never saw it coming…my body wasn’t feeling alright…
Kept going into circles….wondering if I’m your type
I may not be a prince but I ain’t like those jocks in disguise
But girl…You are no princess since you stole my heart with those eyes

Those same eyes that looked at me with your majestic smile
The way they compliment each other is like seeing an angel descending from the skies

Maybe in time you’ll bring me into your kingdom and let me stay for a while…

But for now, I’ll take your friendship and see if we can go for miles

How far can we go…no one knows for sure…
Time will unravel itself, so when you’re ready…

Take my hand and I’ll give you a tour.
