"in your eyes"

@Uootem

nothing more
          than a helpless romantic
                      am i
              with worn-out dreams
                              and futile hopes
                of a tomorrow
                            yet to be...
                                  or never to be
                I know not which
                            for you are still far away
                and the distance
                                makes my heart break.

a broken heart
          does not sleep.
                tear-filled eyes
                              can not close.
              there is no rest
                            where there is no love.
                yet there is no need
                                    for any disguise
                to hide my fatigue,
                            to hide my yearning,
                for you are
                        still not looking.

In my tired eyes
            lies all the secrets
                              of my soul,
                                      of my love for you.
In my eyes
            you once saw more
                              than anyone else
                                      could ever see,
        for you saw my eyes
                        with the reflection
                of the love
                      I once saw in your eyes.
