while you sleep

By watching him

I could see the love in his eyes
the love for a person

who doesn't love in return...

By watching him sleep

I could see the sparkle in his eyes
a sparkle of fascination

to HIM only condemnation

By watching him

I could see the need in his eyes
the need to be loved a need never granted

By watching him a wake

I could see the pain in his eyes
the pain of having loved and not loved in return

Till then......
