[ the look in your eyes ]

the look in your eyes
so hard to understand
mysterious

longing
sad
yet hopeful

you want me to be happy
yet you make me cry

i don't understand the way you think
i don't know if you care

you don't know that you're hurting me
with every word
and glance

those piercing eyes
that look at me
wanting me to smile
yet only seeing me cry
and turn my face away
because i cannot stand

looking in your beautiful eyes

    No?

    I could tease you and say "From the bottom of your heart where this beautiful women with the fire-red hair and slippery-stupid-floor-around-blackboard-feeling have their homes..." Sorry just kidding. It's good although it would have been better to write something more or better to say even less, because the repetition of this "smile/cry"-thing seems, well, not boring, but... I don't know... In this short poem, it's too repetitious, I think.
    Anyway, good work. Keep it up!
