Chocolate Eyes

I’m waiting for you,
To sweep me off my feet,
And tell me you love me.

But all I seem to get,
Is a soft flutter of your fingers,
And a whispered “Goodbye.”

And I just stand there,
And wait for the tears to go,
As I watch your body
Drift away.

And I was waiting,
Waiting for the chance to call us,
Home.

And I was waiting,
On you to give me the chance
Of sweeping you off your feet.

But it’s not okay,
We’re falling apart,
With nothing but space between us,
And my arms reaching out for you,
And you’re leaving me and my heart behind,

And I forgot for a second,
Why I thought that this could work,
And suddenly you’re looking at me,
With your chocolate brown eyes,
And you’re touching me,
And I remember it,
Remember how I seem to fall to my knees,
Remember the flutter of your lids,
As you bend to kiss me.

And everything around me seems to go away,
And my hearts beating,
So uncontrollable,
And I remember,
I remember you telling me,
Telling me you love me so,
And how you said you’d never let me go.

And I remember,
You.
