Bright Eyes

You are
A brown-eyed string of broken promises
Standing two strong arms tall
That one day walked out a door
I never knew was there

I give you light
To gleam in those eyes
Maybe you took a little
Of the light from mine

But it would be polite
If you'd give a little back
And didn't shine
Quite so brightly without me.
