8/13/07 "... Behind those eyes you lie
... Behind those eyes you hide ..." -- 3 Doors Down "Behind Those
Eyes"
Those
eyes
Those
onyx eyes
She
could never tell how he felt
She
could never tell the truth
He
said he loved her
But
she couldn’t be sure
His
eyes held that truth
Away
from her daily
Her
own soft blues
Hid nothing
from him
She
sighed softly
Hoping
his words
Were
never a lie

Behind Those Eyes
(August 13, 2007)
“Great, Cookie,” he told her,
forcing a grin to his face.
There’s something I can’t see,
there’s something different in the way you smile…
It had never been more apparent
that he was lying to her. Not in a nasty, malicious way, not at
all. It was in more of an insecure little boy way. He was just
plain afraid to share his true feelings with her. And that confused her
more than anything else.
She was his wife after all. His friend, his lover, his rock when he needed her to be.
So why the trouble in telling her how he really felt?
And yet, she could tell by the set
of his mouth, and the way he held his head that he was holding something
back. He wasn’t quite certain what to tell her because he couldn’t
decipher what it was he thought she wanted to hear.
His smile was strained; he was
trying to be the strong one, to put on a brave face but he didn’t realize he
didn’t need to. This wasn’t a life or death situation, the fate of their
marriage didn’t hang on his answer. But…
Behind those eyes you lie, behind
those eyes you hide….
But he was afraid of hurting her
feelings. He was terrified of saying or doing the wrong thing. Of
making her angry, or more confused. She just wanted him to be
honest. To see his blue eyes sparkle with delight and not be dulled with
indecision. Or fear.
“Really, Cowboy?” she asked,
attempting to get the truth from him.
“Yeah, honey, I swear.” He
was still trying to make her happy. “I can’t believe this is happening is
all.”
At last, a grain of truth, although
not the whole story. She watched him look over his shoulder at their son,
Rory, and smile a real smile. He loved that boy more than anything, and
that notion filled her with hope. Blake walked to the playpen and lifted
his son out, jiggling him until he giggled.
As you turned to walk away, I saw
another look in your eye…
“Blake,” she called. “Really,
truly, what do you think? Just tell me,” she begged, not wanting him to
hide any longer. “I know you’re not going to run out on me either way,
and if you’re scared, you’re scared. If you’re upset, then we’ll deal
with it. I just want, I need the truth. Please.”
Blake looked down at Rory and fell
into his boy’s blue eyes. He knew he’d be happy no matter what the
outcome may be. But this? He shook his
head. She was right; he was afraid. Looking up, he met her
gaze and grimaced, allowing his uncertainty to show for the first time.
“Damn, Ali. What the hell are we gonna do with twins?”
She smiled and shrugged. “I
don’t know, but we’ll figure it out, right?” All he could do was smile
back

Behind those eyes you lie,
behind those eyes you hide,
seeing people dying,
and providing their last
ride.
For in a land far away,
we lose a soldier
everyday
Roadside bombs and IED's
Oh my, can you see
Half way, across the sea,
are those who wait such
as me.
wondering if they will ever see
or if a family again,
will they ever be
A friend of mine, lost his son
to someone, he was the
one
His daughter's face he will not see
or what she will ever be
So I wish these wars would end
and to our loved ones, to
home they will send
I can not breathe easy again,
until I feel my husband's
skin.

~ Behind those Eyes ~
Behind those eyes,
those deep dark eyes,
behind those eyes you lie
Shrouded by the charm with which
you used as your disguise
It started with a
simple look
a smile one summer's day
When dancing eyes had mesmerized
and took my breath away
The jaded depth of
your allure
as I stepped up to take
Your hand in mine, to feel your kiss
and gentle love we make
The breathless way you
moved me
I was lost within your spell
Was this magic an illusion?
somehow I couldn't tell.
Each time I looked
into those eyes
there was so much to see
Not just a stolen moment
but the woman you've made me
I never thought
there'd come a day
behind those eyes I'd hide
And yet with you I'd found a place
where destinies collide
So clandestine was
this affair
I could not even see
That I was not the first or last
the fool you made of me
Behind those eyes,
those deep dark eyes
behind those eyes you hide
I loved you and you lied to me
now watch me slowly die....

Behind Your Eyes
We've been friends
For many years
Through happiness, sorrow
Laughter, and tears
Yet you look at me
And tell me these lies
As if I can not see
The truth behind your eyes
I know you too well
So stop hiding your pain
Lean on me my friend
I'll still love you the same
Behind your eyes
I see hurt and despair
Share your pain with me
I love you and I care

When it comes to
you
"... Behind those eyes you lie ...
Behind those eyes you hide ..."
I never realized I could fall so hard
I never thought I could fall so quickly
You told me you were the good guy
You were the one bunched with the duds
I quickly learned you are no different
You used to benefit
You used to get over
I still find myself falling deeper
I defend you without thought
I long to hear you say my name
You invade my dreams
Filling my spirit with hope
Still I know that dreams and reality
They never mix
I limit myself from you
I wonder if you question
Help me I am second guessing again
My poker face I use
When I think my heart is about to cut loose
Because you smile that smile
I catch the weakness
I notice the vulnerability
I want to know how to help
I want to know how to control
Moments alone
Innocent touches
Secrets smiles
Gentle caresses
I often wonder if
Behind your eyes
You lie
I often debate if
Behind your eyes
You hide
I know I do sometimes
When it comes to you
Genta
Behind
your truth
I
sit and glaze out the window
An
admission to confirm my suspicion
Makes
me wonder what else I need to know
That
behind those green eyes you hide
Boasting
you love me
And
that I’m the only one for you
Knowing
that you keep secrets
Knowingly
that you lie
Another
section of my heart shatters
Another
part of my soul leaves
The
flame of passion dies down
My
love questions your intent
Behind
your eyes
You
lie
Behind
your truth
You
hide
