Pleading Eyes Will Lie

So far I’ve been turned away,

I’ve been pushed away,

forced away

from you.

…

They push and shove

with subtleties

that seem to

dissect my mind

before their eyes.

…

But they don’t really see

all you mean to me

and if they think that I will stray

I won’t be pushed away.

…

So far they say

to look away

to run away

not to stay.

They come between the pleading eyes.

Bleeding lies are forced from

our wounds.

…

So far they say

it’ll go away,

I’ll never stay,

I’ll walk away

from you.

…

But they don’t see

all you mean to me

and I know you see

that I won’t turn away.

We won’t be forced away.

I won’t walk away

from you.
