Green Eyes

He had green eyes
The kind that look right thru you
A soft voice
Could melt the hardest heart
He was wisdom
And gentle as the nighttime
Breeze right thru you
Made it easy from the start...

I was falling
Long before I knew it
I was enchanted
In ways I'd never been
It was his laughter
That quiet sense of humor
That pulled me out
And yet, somehow pulled me in...

But never
Did I ever think he'd love me
Someone...somewhere
Told me once
That's not for you
To know that kind of beauty
And I believed
I didn't stand a chance...

He could surround you
And make you feel the sunshine
Like a tangible thing
Like something newly felt
He told stories
Of a thousand different lifetimes
Weave you a fable
Cast you a powerful spell...

I was in it
Deeper than the ocean
I was drowning
But didn't really care
I was somewhere
Just this side of Heaven
When he said...remember
Forever's just a word...

He was kindness
Whenever I felt beaten
He was courage
When I was desperate to stay alive
He was the morning
Answer to my darkness
Giver of light
To this foundling shadow child...

But never
Did I ever think he'd love me
Someone...somewhere
Told me once
That's not for you
You don't possess the beauty
But he proved me wrong
Time and time again...

Then I lost him
Lost him to the future
That dark, dark day
That would steal everyone
He was the one thing
I never thought I'd find here
He had green eyes
Green eyes that I loved...
