Disenchantment





Oh such luminous blue eyes,
burning right through me.
You hold me in enchantment,
my eyes are locked in thee.
I can't seem to clear my head,
the situation seems so gauche.
It seems as if time has stopped,
I just stand there comatose.
Slowly the eyes come closer,
I had nothing left to fight.
Like two young birds hand-in-hand
we took off for flight.
While in that dreamy flight,
I turned to see those eyes,
I looked to find the darkness,
nothing but empty skies.
Disenchantment overcame me,
lost inside myself.
Wanting to never fall again,
I laid my heart on a shelf.
