Brown eyes,
Dark brown eyes,
Have never been my favorite
Until I saw home in yours.
The way you look at me
Drives me crazy
With those brown eyes
You look at me
And I see the anger leave you
I see the hatred in your heart escape
Like butterflies
The ones before you who gave me butterflies
Left spiders in their place
You make the whole zoo take part in my tummy
A baby taken from the womb
Our baby
Left my heart broken and my soul bitter
Bitterness in my heart
The same bitterness I once had before you
