Sad brown eyes

Love should bring joy. Not sadness.

Sad brown eyes

 
A brown eye angel is crying in our bedroom for me.

 

In a turmoil of a kind love.

A paradise of burning emotion.

You can create a strange prison.

 

I held her too tightly.

I didn’t hold her enough.

 

The fine line of giving and taking leave you confused.

 

Love held on by a few words won’t last the night.

I try to speak softly and don’t create a wall of hate.

 

When life’s disappointments surround you.

Slow down and think.

 

I close my eyes.

Re-set my thoughts.

Allow the pain to evaporate into the night.

 

I told her “I love you since the first moment I looked into your brown eyes..”

We sat  together in a silence and  I held  her tightly.

 

I whispered. “Stop the fear and hate before the walls of love falls down forever.

In a nightmare  you  didn’t love me. I was alone”

 

I fell to my knees and prayed at her feet.

“My only wish.

Please don’t leave my life.”

 

I open my eyes and my brown eye Angel embraced me.

She told me. “You are my first real love.

When you leave me. I will never be complete again.”

 

I whispered “I love you and I need you.

Your love made a man running in circles find peace.”

 

Sweet dreams can become nightmares.

 

A wise man is gentle with his wife and children.

 

Love bring love. Kindness bring kindness.

 

Some words should never be spoken.

 

For words can break a heart forever.

 

I will go to my brown eye angel and beg for forgiveness.
