Your Dancing Brown Eyes

Your dancing dark brown eyes

Are so full of pathos and fun;

Your soft voice would a stone mesmerize

And set the heart on a run!

The curve on your lips

Adds beauty to your face;

Silently, the blood from my heart drips

And fades away without any trace!

How much I yearn for thee—

You haven't the faintest notion;

If only you could rip my bosom and see,

You'd know the problem and the solution!

With a mask, head-cap, gloved hands,

And brown eyes as you lower your gaze,

I long to play with the loose strands

And be lost forever in your maze!

Sometimes, I see your eyes dance

As you lower the scalpel down;

Mesmerized, I lovingly glance

At you, in your green gown!

Alas, that world could last forever,

And never to the present return;

For the burden is like a flowing river

Of flames, which makes me eternally burn!

For honour's sake, I hold my demons;

My fervent steps I slowly retrace.

It's like hellfire—I kill my emotions,

And with coldness, I dwell in grace.
