I lost my eyes
That day in December
When you finally came around.
They were misguided by delight
That feeling of relief
When you were finally found.
Yes, my eyes went blind
That day in December
When you wrapped your arms
Around my lonely fragile body
They were warm and comforting
A feeling of tranquility with no alarms.
But my eyes were hollow sockets
Filled with the surface memories
Of your charming smile.
I was oblivious to your cruelty
Your arms closing in on my soul,
Your laugh so haunting and so vile.
Yes, I missed the signs
That day in December
When you finally came around.
I missed the signs
That showed your other side
And now I’m left crying on the ground.
