As I look into your eyes
I can see myself so strong
I can see a twinkle in your eye
I can tell that im a part of you
Its all too real
Looking through your eyes

As I look into your eyes
I can see me slowly fading away
I can see a tear in your eye
I can tell im going to disappear
Its all too real
Looking through your eyes

As I look through your eyes
I can see the glimpse of someone else
I can see that twinkle in your eye
I can tell im gone
Its all too real
Looking through your eyes

As I look into your eyes
I can see your happier
I can see a tear in your eye
I can tell that you know that I am here watching from above
Its all too real
Looking through your eyes


"True friends stab you in the front."
"You are special and unique in your own way." "Your FAITH is all you need"

I see what your saying and I've been there before... Man have I been there before. Eyes can tell so much. I think this was lacking a bit emotion though. Not sure. And the First line threw me off. You should choose either through or into- you can't have them both. Other than that I thought this was a nice write. Thanks for the read.

Spice, thanx for your advice.  I just felt like writing, I guess my hands were working faster than my mind.

I thought this one was good. I have to agree with Spice about the eyes...they truly are the window to a person's soul.  This was great and thanks for sharing!

It takes only a minute to like someone, a hour to love someone, but a lifetime to forget them.

The words "into" and "through" are used here in the poem. Into just means yer looking at them and in their soul.....through just means you're trying to get passed the eyes and get to something else.

If the poem is about love and so on "into" would be perfect. If it's about bitterness or some much DEEPER meaning "through" would be awesome. Personally, I love "through"...but that's just me.
Anyhow, I thought you did just fine on the poem.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
