My Eyes Poem

Beaten down and broken
Hurt and black and blue
Wish that I could somehow
Take all of that from you

Always seems impossible
To break out from the past
Cause when escape looks likely
The hurt pursues you fast

I can’t pretend to know
Exactly what you feel
But maybe if we’re lucky
Somehow I’ll help you heal

I wish that I could show you
How you look through my eyes
I hate to be without you
And cannot tell you lies

You know me like no other
And you live inside my head
You possess all of my thoughts
As I have often said

You may not believe me
That I love what I see
But one thing that I know is
You’re the better part of me
