She stared across the bar
Never thought that was so far…
But the distance between
Your smile and eyes…cut me lean.
The words you say with your eyes
Fill all sorts of books.
Darting glances, snarling faces, surprise. The black of your hair.
The feel of despair…
If you won’t look at me.
Lady full of looks…
Take me to thee. She stared across the space
Never thought I’d see that face
Between the distance of those blue eyes.
Still see in them…surprise.
