Hi, I say to the mirror Who are you? Do i know you? For what looks out is not me He has no scars where his heart was He has no marks from a million tears He doesnt look as sad as i am I cannot see her mark upon him i cannot see each burning brand where she kissed him i cannot see the aching ear she lied in he cannot hold the pain she has inflicted One so large she couldnt have restricted But it must be me looking back in the mirror his eyes are as dead as mine thats her real gift, killing whats inside Take a good look at my face Well, don't my smile look out of place look a little closer its easy to trace The tracks of my tears [This message has been edited by Walter Poe (11-12-2002 05:32 AM).] |

Yeah, Paul..... most times people can't see what's going on inside of us....unless they look into our eyes. Most can't hide their feelings if someone can read other's eyes...Gary and I do that a lot. We gaze deep into each other's eyes, right down into our inner beings. "Love makes the world go around" |
