I've seen those eyes a thousand times
But today... today is different
For today, they’re seeing mine for the first...
...again
The heart is stricken when the words leave his lips
It’s okay though, I understand
I remind him my name and when he does the same
It hurts. I cry.
It’s like I lost someone in such a way
That their spirit is still around
Haunting what just may never be again
The heart beats. But the memory.. the memories do not
Hard to know how he sees through those eyes
What he knows, what has changed
And only god knows why it affects me so
But it does, and the eyes don’t lie
And he may never.. come back..
To the memory of what used to be
He is a boy long lost
And lost is he, in a place.. of empty faces.
