I look into her eyes and hear love's sweet serenade:
My heart. It beats. My chest. It aches. My body. Throbbing.
I crave her like a prisoner craves freedom
and only she is my release.
She is my vision, my light, my everything.
She is my reason for waking;
my reason for working;
my reason for living and loving.
But to her, I am just another being.
If only the light that she placed within me
Could shine back to her and allow her to see
Something. Anything.
I look into her eyes and see my everything.
She looks right though me,as if I were an X-ray.
She doesn't see my heart beating only for her.
I am merely bones in a hollow shell.
