Array ( [sid] => 12701 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Keep Them Closed [time] => 2003-02-15 23:20:00 [hometext] => My poem is a poem about a love a friend of mine has lost and she would give anything to get him back. [bodytext] => Don't open your eyes
Keep them closed.
If you open them, all is lost.
keep them closed, for if u dont,
the vision of his smile will be lost forever.
For if you open them,
reallity comes back, and you live it,
like it is,
not how you dream it to be.
Therefore if you dream of him,
your body goes numb.

Keep your eyes closed,
because that is the only way,
you can look back into his eyes,
the only way the warmth of his body,
comes back to you.
Keep them closed.
Because that is the only way you feel him looking at you.

When he held me,
I felt free, safe, content.
But now I cant be with him.
If I close my eyes,
Im there with him.
I close my eyes and I feel his presence.
I cant open them.
If I do, all Ive seen and thought,
is brushed away.

The serenity of his presence,
makes me warm.
I open my eyes, and it all fades away so fast,
and I become torn.

I felt him starring me.
And joy filled my body.
I feel his eyes look me up and down,
but only in my thoughts.
I bet you couldnt tell I still loved him.

Keep them closed,
or suffer the loss of your once loved.
That one image you cant get back.
Cuz when you open your eyes,
another image wasted,cause you can never get it back.

Keep them closed,
closed for all eternity.
If you close your eyes,
the warmth of his hands will come to you,
just as it did.
Dont seem to obvious though.
Dont let him know you miss him.
Cuz missing him wont bring him back.

What happened?
what went down?
Now what? What are you going to do?
I have my own problems, and plus...
I cant look at you.
Cuz when I look at you I see him,
when I look into your eyes, I feel him.
And then I'll know I'll never fall in love again.

Keep them closed,
close them tight.
Cuz if you dont the vision will leave,
and you will be saying goodbye,
goodbye to your first look,
goodbye to your first stare,
goodbye to your first kiss.
So now its gone,
Its no longer there.

Don't open your eyes
Keep them closed.

Therefore if you dream of him,
your body goes numb.

Keep your eyes closed,
because that is the only way,
you can look back into his eyes,
the only way the warmth of his body,
comes back to you.
Keep them closed.
Because that is the only way you feel him looking at you.
