In Your Eyes
You disguise with your eyes every pain and sorrow
I see sighs in your eyes waiting for tomorrow
You surmise with your eyes every hint and rumor
I see sleuth in your eyes tasking the exhumer
You chastise with your eyes every angst and tension
I see truth in your eyes spelling real intention
You reprise with your eyes every debt and claimant
I see routh in your eyes giving fair repayment
You surprise with your eyes every bit and measure
I see youth in your eyes sensing no displeasure
You uprise with your eyes every laud and tribute
I see couth in your eyes showing this attribute
You incise with your eyes every mix and montage
I see sooth in your eyes tooling sly camouflage
You disguise with your eyes every fact and fiction
I see lies in your eyes cloaking some infliction
