What She Sees

I suppose this is a poem and film about doubt.

 

What does she see when she looks in your eyes

Are you thinking of her with desire

Are you lost in your thoughts and your needs

Aching with personal fire

 

What does she see when she looks in your soul

Are you thinking of her with disdain?

Are you wishing your touch was less cold

Are you a ghost of your past and insane

 

What does she see when she looks in your heart

Are you waiting for what never will come

Are you speechless in fright as you stare

Sad for the wretch you've become

 

What does she see when she looks in your eyes

Are you tender or burning with thought

Are you watching her eyes or her flesh

Are you a fountain of love or a shot

 

What does she hear when she asks you to stay

Do you think of her longing for friends

What do you see when she looks in your eyes

Are you the start of her joy or its end

 

What does she see when she looks in your eyes

What do you see when you look in your soul
