Once upon a time
A time when she saw a sign
A sign and her future in his eyes
Amidst fears and tears but (un)happy cries
Was it what it was?
In between she looks back at the time
The time when it was what it was
And questions with a pause…
‘what it was was a lie’
‘what it was did not lie’
who saw what? Who showed what?
Yet today when she looked in his eyes
Some truths were lies
She cried, she smiled
she sighed.
And if tomorrow may be hers
Or today she borrows
and tomorrow is of sorrows
or today is hers
who knows?
Gold and gain, cold moments of pain
So where the truth lies
Is in his eyes
But when her eyes asked his
His eyes stared back empty!
