Live like you were dying.<br /> <br /> Nature&#039;s first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf&#039;s a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay

Whenever I see you, the first thing I do is look into your eyes
I like your eyes
I know your eye color, crystal blue with a hint of grey
But every time I look into them, I see sadness
I look deeper into them
Still sadness, no sign of happiness
You see me looking and I look into them for a 3rd time
And I see happiness
When I looked the first few times, you were looking
For somebody or something, I have no clue
You see me and your eyes change emotion
From sad to happy
I wonder why
And then your eyes say “there she is, the one I love”
And then I understand why
And I send back I love you with my eyes
