Blue Depths

Every night I look into your blue depths

Wondering if I could

If I could reach out and touch out

Thinking better I had not

Fear of waking you scared me

So I just stare at you, looking into your blue depths

Trying to reach out

To gain a common bond

Something to hold on to

When you don’t want to hold

When you just want to let go

Let go of all your responsibilities

And disappear

Leaving me all alone

Without your sparkling eyes to guide me

Without your carefree attitude to show me home

Cause my home is wherever you are

Aye, that’s how much I love you

And every night

When you lay down next to me

All I see are your sparkling blue eyes

The blue eyes that hold the trust of faith

And the fear of life

Those eyes of yours feed my soul;

Looking down at you in the middle of the night

Or in the brightness of the day

Your blue eyes guide me

And worn others to stay away

Your blue eyes which hold so much concern

Rarely show what you’re truly feeling

Marked by deep secrets of the past

You grasp onto whatever you can

And be carefree

As though nothing bothered you

Yet I can see

Everything you have to fight

To just gain control over what you see

And every night when I gaze into your blue depths

All I see is a look of pure peace; solitude

Yet as soon as you wake it’s gone

And your mask is back

So others you won't let in for fear

Fear of what they have or will do?

I do not know, you have never let me inside

All I know is that when I look into your blue depths

I see a reflection of my soul

I see what others cannot

A man who needs to be cared for

A man who needs to have a loving family; a father who cares

When you let me in, and I know you will

I promise not to reveal anything to anyone

And to keep it between us

For when I look into your blue eyes that sparkle, and I am lost

So lost that a hurricane could pass and I wouldn’t notice

Cause lost in your blue depths,

Time has no meaning

And yourself is revealed

Giving me a slight glimpse at the real you

And I thank you for giving me a chance

No one would ever have taken a chance like that on me

Yet you did

And now I wish to do something for you

As special as what you did for me

Yet I do not know what

So I promise to be here for you

And I promise not to tell anyone that one night

Way past one,

You revealed your true self to me

I still wonder why you did that

But I know you understand

And so whenever I look into your sparkling blue depths,

I will look for a way in which to make life better for us as a whole

But, until then

I will just look into your beautiful blue eyes

And wonder just how much of you is a mystery to us

Whom you do not let in

And I will always look into your beautiful blue depths with a new respect

After that night

When you told all of your troubles

But I will always look into your blue depths and see a child who needs help

And will try to provide as much as I can

And hope your eyes do not loose their sparkle

For when your eyes sparkle, your soul shines

And when your eyes grow dim, you have lost all but a touch of your soul

And your blue depths reveal so much that no one will ever see

Yet you have shown me

And I will keep that fact close to my heart as nothing before

And comfort you in the wee hours of the morning

And kiss you late at night

And gaze at you with love, as I have been incapable of until now

And so I must thank you in such a way that has not been discovered yet

So I am writing this, though you may very well never see it

It is here and that is comfort enough for me for now

Someday I may show it to you

But that is uncertain

So just know that I gaze at you with the love of life and hope someday you will finally see

That your life has not been wasted as you so stubbornly think

And that it has been well spent

Giving me the most precious gift anyone could have given me-the gift of trust and love

 So though you will not see this and though you do not know it exist

Know that I cherish the time we share

And that I thank you for all that you have done

And that I will always remember you, your eyes, and us.
