She said I had sad eyes, so very sad
I opened those eyes to her passionate warmth
I bathed in the luxury of her eyes/lens
She made me smile for a while a deep new smile
A smile I had longed to have for a hearts eon
It came from a part of my soul that I just cant hide
So now I was a man opened raw and vulnerable
I sometimes fell short of her deeper needs
Oh woe is me now for I have been lashed
Her anger reached out and touched me too deep
I fear I have not comprehended just how to love
So now I am on the whipping post of my own fierce whip
So she called me out as a runner she did
It’s not a run when you take cover from the lashes
It’s the pain uncovered from places unknown but deep
So now I am spun into the dark reaches of the universe
