I quietly ponder
the way your eyes talk
are they sorry?
are they happy?
are they jealous?
they dance with mine
but i still don't know
are they mocking?
are they loving?
are they anxious or proud?
help me know
i want to know you want to be good
but all i see in you is the horrible things
i try to look for the good
but you have to help
talk with more than your eyes
i promise i won't laugh
or scoff
or roll my eyes
you can trust me
