Spells of Eyes
I need no words to declare my contrition
I need make no confession
Though I may be compelled thus
The words themselves are of minimal effect
And that which speaks loudest is the moment in which
I step before you
Look you in the eye
And when I do that
It's how it was before
You before me
I before you
A glimpse of the past
A hint to the future
Some may say it's daring
Some may say it's audacious
Some have no regard
I dare not challenge you
I dare not confess my sin
That it arise before me from the ground
Summoned at my call
I dare share only my vision
And stood before you now
My vision is of your eyes
And I hope that you look not through me
Not past
Not over
Not beyond
I pray only that your vision be of mine eyes too
And agreement unspoken
And agreement of no sound
An agreement sincerely declared
By unfaltering fixation
Your eyes on mine
And mine on yours
I can never repay my debt to you
A debt of a thousand words
A million
Perhaps even more
Is what it would take to heal the wounds I've inflicted
Words I can not repay
Not a single one
It it is not however out of greed
That I don't share with you from my well of contrition
My words are sorely cursed
In the hands of
Spewed from the mouth of
The unworthy language sorcerer
The white wizard
Bestowed only with black words.
Though my heart be light
My black words summon sin
And I seek to spare you
And I seek to spare me
I seek to love you once more
I seek with my eyes
I pray that my gaze may suffice
I hope you seek to love me too
Browse my spell book
Read between every line
You will find no spell of hate
So even if you seek not to love me too
Fear not my magic
My gaze will not falter
I will simply go on seeking
Until the day I die
Seeking only love

It's too hard to say sorry. But I'll try my best
