The Power in Her
Into her eyes i look
in them i read a book
if only i could speak up the words
that seem to be cutting through my heart like swords
a complex web of thoughts
floats through my mind like sailing boats
if only i could tell the tale in her mind
i wish it could be blown by wind
to me its more than a picture
on it i see a feature
with my arms i'd wish her face to paint
but in my mind its faint
about her I got memories
together we have shared stories
