Gently Slip In

His eyes are pure art
his most precious part
fearful when angry
and warm when they're not

I love to be in them
To bathe and to swim
in his pools of pure heaven
I gently slip in

His tears are the rain
of earth's every shower
The storms hidden rage
thunder's great power

The depth of his soul
lies in his eyes
The story they sing
when in sadness he cries

His eyes have me branded
with part of his soul
held as his captive
if truth would be told

I've carried his eyes
in the back of my heart
Surprised, he hasn't missed them
since we've been apart

I see them before me
On a quiet dark night
when the music is low
and my mind's taking flight

I'd love to be in them
to bathe and to swim
his pools of pure heaven
I'd gently slip in.
