Half Opened Eyes

Contributed by withpen_inhand on Friday, 12th July 2002 @ 10:46:49 PM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry





I walked through life,With half opened eyes
Not looking at the future,Living one day at a time

Life held no future,For someone like me
I was alone in this world,As alone as I could be

Then I met you,And I finally changed my mind
It was love at first sight,But we did'nt know it at the time.

I knew it was love,Our hearts fell into place
When everywhere I looked,I saw your pretty face

I had you in my thoughts,All through the day
You were on my mind always,You never went away.

I started looking to the future,Something I could never see
I started seeing us together,With you always beside me.

Then I spoke of this to you,And much to my surprise
I found YOU were looking ,Through half opened eyes

You said you loved me,And I also heard you say
"I dont look to the future,I live day to day"

The bright light in my eyes,That day dimmed for me
I had my eyes wide open,But I still couldn't see

And then I saw it so plain,It was sharp reality
You saw no future,No future for you and me

Once again I go through life,With half opened eyes
Never looking at the future,Living one day at a time

I find that most of the time it is best to live day to day and not take things for granted.and to see things through others eyes.Very well written!

Thank you for the comment.I totaly agree with you on seeing things through others eyes.It gives a greater concept of life.A much wider view.
