Beautiful Eyes

You say I’m beautiful. You say you love my eyes. You flatter me over and over again. But you won’t learn anything about me.

So, you won’t love me. 

You like to stare and compartmentalize while I gaze and romanticize. So lost on the surface, you couldn’t dig beneath.

The world is full of fortunate fools, genetically bound, in all the “right” ways. Honey, I implore you to seek deeper. Start that dig.

There’s not a thing I could do. I’ll watch you jump ship to the next pair of beautiful eyes. And while my path will veer off down some road, your spiral will persist. With each new flattery, you will find yourself lying in his bed, on the surface, staring into those momentary beautiful eyes.

So, you won’t love me.
