crystal eyes

do then realize
that I would go a bit
beyond surmise

that I would
fill you a little more
with surprise

if you would
look beyond to my
crystal eyes

do not think
that you would ever
find lies

nor that I
would ever begin
your demise

but you would
find a harbor between
these sighs

if you were
to believe in my
crystal eyes

if you were
to trust in my
realize

then gain
a great hold in
my apprise

by simply
looking deep into my
crystal eyes

where I hold
your heart and never
a goodbye

ah yes your
love belongs here in
my crystal eyes

behold the shimmer
of faceted rainbows seen,
crystallized

here in my
crystal eyes
realize
your surprise
and take
comfort in
my idolize
of you, my
love, beneath
these
blue skies
your love is
found in
sweetened
highs
and in the
depths of
crystal eyes

Lady,

This is very pretty and a tender invitation to he that would trust to look into those cystal eyes.  Nice work!

You tease!
We cannot see those crystal eyes!
And there is so much there...
The magic mirror, the willing window...

through crystal eyes
we can see right through
to the soul of love

excellent. . . wonderfully flowing and delicate. . .

I liked this, IF I were critiquing it, I would have to say I believed the word "crystal" was used too many times, it's a delicate word, one that evokes images...anyway, I liked the piece..
