My eyes watch
carefully
staring deep inside
longing to know
to learn
to see what is inside
through those crystal windows
through those beautiful eyes
what is there
I see
I see
I see happiness
bubbling inside
pouring out from within
a joy like no other
where does it come from
it flows out
like a fountain
laughter overflows
bathing me
as I watch in awe
in wonder
my eyes focused
staring deeper
I see
I see
I see pain
buried there
hidden within like mine
always there
always reminding
mistakes boiling
regret outpouring
but not overwhelming
life not taken
my heart aches
as I long to help
to know
to hold
my eyes locked
tears filling them
I see
I see
I see walls
deep in the center,
center of a soul
crazy, crazy,
like no other
I see a soul
loving, loving,
from deep within
I see
I see
I see memories
pouring out
stories untold
lessons learned
I watch
basking, soaking it all in
wonder filling me
I watch
my heart longing
my soul focused
my mind still
my eyes staring deeper
to the center
to the center deep within
I see
I see
I see a light
shining bright
shining like no other
filling, overflowing
drawing me in
deep inside
I see
I see
I see a garden
a cross at the center
covered in blood
blood shining bright
covering everything here
covering the memories
covering the pain
covering the mistakes
filling the emptiness
birds flutter everywhere
flowers decorate the grass
trees filled with leaves all around
high walls covered in vines
surround this place
I see
I see
I see the light of God
shining brightly from the garden
filling all
shining to all
I see
I see
I see God Himself
walking in the garden
tending it
caring for it
loving it
I see it all
pouring out onto all
pouring out from within
from inside her....
