Beautiful Brown Eyes
My mind does not
wander from you

Everyday I feel insane
unable to set you free
my heart beats for you

I sit here again
thinking of you
wondering 'what if...'

Finally I find
the nerve and
I call you

Beautiful Brown Eyes
I feel them looking to me
As you say "Hello"

Your soft sensual voice
sends a shiver
down my spine

I stutter and mumble
as I try to find the words
I hear again "Hello"

Beautiful Brown Eyes you
knew my voice we spoke
as if it were only yesterday

My heart is pounding
and gitty I am here
talking with you

As though it were
a natural thing to do
still nervous and tangled

You put me at ease
as you always have
we made a date

Alice's on the ridge
I arrived first
practicing my words

Warm hands from behind
cover my eyes
I rose we embraced

For hours we went on
I found the nerve
to tell you my 'what if...'

Your smile so tender
telling me that it
was No tease

We shared our lives
I told you of travels
that I had taken with you

Your turn to share
voice was calm
a serious tone

You had found
a love for life...until
death did you part

Never stuttering a word
continuing with brave
you too were ill

Beautiful Brown Eyes
locked with mine 
my call had been your wish

Your hand reached mine
a language all your own
we had smiles and  tears

...then said Goodbye

I received the call an hour ago
Your Beautiful Brown Eyes
are looking from above

I cried and smiled, happy
for the courage I found
to tell you my 'What If...'


...my Beautiful Brown Eyes
