Hazel eyes staring out at me
From your place on the wall
Showing me your soul
And all the agony and despair you have faced
Your beautiful blonde hair
Rests lightly on your shoulders
So gentle, so delicate
Contradicting your cool demeanor and
Your strong arms and intimidating stature
I look at you every day
And you still amaze me
How one picture can show me so much
How one picture can remind me of so much
After all that you’ve seen
After all that you’ve lived you are still here
Still giving
Baring your soul night after night
In dark bars to crowds drunk
On the ecstasy of your words
Fighting inner demons in the
Glorious chaos of violent pits
I stare at your face
Every night
Before I go to bed
You are there on my wall
In the fire of those eyes that tell all
Guiding me out of the darkness
As your music soars from my CD player
Singing me to sleep
