My eyes adored you.. And a Frankie Valli song.


 My eyes adored you..

I loved you near and afar.
I loved your soft voice and beautiful face.
I stood near you and we held hands, and we shared drink at the River Inn.
We traveled California one and I watched your dance
on the quiet beaches.
We found private places where you laid bare and free.
I could see a woman, I beloved in silence .
But my need for you.
You never felt.
Because I didn’t show you, who I was
All I wanted was you,
Near but far away.
Today I’m alone without you.
And you,
so far away from me.
Today my only  wish,
is that I told you I adored you.
