Honest Eyes

Honest eyes

I’ve sat in silence
And wept the night to day
Rode the wind
With laughter by my side

Kissed the lips
That reached so tenderly
For mine to touch
And burn with ecstasy

I’ve helped the ones
Who had no care for me
Turned my back on no man
To this day

I’ve heard the treacherous
Lies of fools
But gave them no time
And left as if no words were said

Give me a heart
Filled full of honesty
And eyes that glimmer
In the truth
