Keep your eyes on me, with those eyes so bright.
Something taken from the light
which elates joy from senses keen
and touches within the anger mean
to bring about a better mood
at least it does before its viewed
too close, that shine, eyes to the brim
it’s really to bright, now get it to dim.
No offense, I meant every word
and every compliment I know you’ve heard
is true and that I will not deny,
but such shining light can’t make me but cry
after extended periods of having to gaze
upon your splendour – my own eyes will glaze.
