Beyond Her Eyes
Beyond Her Eyes

I sense her in the velvet night
as she lays next to me.
I feel her tense, as if in fright
that somehow I would see
the angry scar across her chest
that has replaced her once soft breast.
         The angry scar.
         The angry scar
that plays upon her mind at rest.

I sense her in the velvet night
when doubt and fear prevails.
The beauty of her still shines bright
and yet my reassurance fails.
She can't see past the twisted weal
nor understand how I still feel.
         She can't see past.
         She can't see past
her loss and understand what's real.

I sense her in the velvet night.
There'll be no compromise.
One day I will restore her sight.
She's unchanged in my eyes.
Her wounds run deep, within her soul,
as her emotions take control.
         Her wounds run deep.
         Her wounds run deep
but I've the strength to make her whole.
