The Girl with Black Eyes
  Eyes are the window to the soul
  Her eyes were two pieces of coal
  They shined bright never to grow old
  The world saw her as proud and cold
  The shutters were locked, the curtains drawn
  Stuck inside her head she was withdrawn
  Her eyes never betrayed her, she was an enigma
  Although she said little she had a certain charisma
  To know her was to try  to understand her mind
  To show herself; she was hardly inclined
  Her thoughts were profound
  Her head in the clouds; her feet on the ground
  I'm in love with the girl with black eyes
  When I talk with her time flies
  She's hard to keep as she's always moving
  If it were possible she'd be the one I'd be choosing
  In her own world she's free and graceful
  To be just a spectator is fairly painful
  I'm the hunter she's the deer
  Every time I get close she's gone from the clear
  The girl with black eyes glides through my dreams
  The girl with black eyes; is she who she seems?

When I wrote this I imagined how someone who "loved" me but didn't know me would see me. It's not meant to be vain, but rather wishful thinking on my part since the boy I am pretending to be doesn't even truly know me.
