Eyes Don't Lie
Time has played well with emotions,
Taking me light years away from my dreams;
I can make out the change in your smile,
Though you insist you are just the same.
Don't you deny the language of your eyes
I can sense it from your smile,
Your lifeless smile I can see it all...
Hatred dancing to your tunes in rhythm;
Turn me down if you want to, but don't pretend
Having what you don't actually do....
