I clutch the match until it begins to burn
Searching for love in a shallow place
Ignoring the heart and fixed on the face

Many of their memories linger in my mind
An ocean of beauty that I have left behind
And even though it was blissful at first
It wasn't enough to quench my thirst

I am called a player by the untrained eye
But I do not cheat and I never lie
I have broken some hearts and this I know
Why should I stay when love has no place to go

I look for my soul mate with unforgiving eyes
Not allowing the chance to reveal what's inside
I search too fast and I will probably fail to see
The most beautiful woman that is meant for me

Unforgiving Eyes

Contributed by Kano on Wednesday, 23rd November 2005 @ 04:50:11 AM in AEST
Topic: obsession

Twenty-four years and not a lesson learned
I clutch the match until it begins to burn
Searching for love in a shallow place
Ignoring the heart and fixed on the face

Many of their memories linger in my mind
An ocean of beauty that I have left behind
And even though it was blissful at first
It wasn't enough to quench my thirst

I am called a player by the untrained eye
But I do not cheat and I never lie
I have broken some hearts and this I know
Why should I stay when love has no place to go

I look for my soul mate with unforgiving eyes
Not allowing the chance to reveal what's inside
I search too fast and I will probably fail to see
The most beautiful woman that is meant for me

so true! It's amazing how fast people are to pass judgement and see only one side of the triangle. Very good write.

lol I think it's been a bit longer then a month, just disappear eh? Very nice of you. Amazing write though, heartfelt, honest. I guess a lot of people are like this, always looking for that perfect person, that never seems to appear, then when they do, you don't see them. Love the write, hopefully you won't vanish again and we'll get to see more =D lol. Nice to see you back.

A VERY GOOD WRITE MY FRIEND AND I THANK YOU FOR THE COMMENT ON MINE. LOVE TAKES TIME AND M OST OF THE TIME IT FEELS LIKE YOU WILL NEVER FIND YOUR LOVE AND THEN OTHER TIMES

WILL FIND YOU IF YOU WANT IT TO.
VERY WELL DONE ON THIS WRITE IT
FLOWS VERY SMOOTH AND IT GETS
THE EMOTIONS AND MEAN OF THE
WORDS BY WITHOUT ANY EFFORT BY
