last night so brief, that moment still, I found a small perfection
for years I looked, without a trace, to find in your complexion
a little piece of happiness, your smile can only bring
but as you lied there next to me, your eyes said not a thing.
why is it when you want something, its never yours to own,
why is it when you love someone, you always feel alone,
you’ll never see me as I am, and probably just as well,
for words don’t seem to hurt as much, when there’s nothing left to tell.

This is very good Kevin. I have a couple of suggestions though. Capitalization would put a finsihed feel to this piece as well as punctuation. There are few periods at the end of a thought. This causes the reader to trip over parts of it. they have to read a line more then once in oder to stop and start the thoughts.

This is good....i love it when writing comes straight from the heart.Your rhythm needs a touchup and the transition from looking at her to seeing nothing kinda went to fast. I don't know if that made any sense but good work.On a personal level i know exactly what your talking about,and usually people ignore signs like that but whats in the eyes can make the diffrence.
