Those eyes
_Dear JP,_

_I wish you wouldn’t look at me with those eyes_
_Because even after all this time_
_I don’t believe you_
_When you say_
_You don’t love me_
_Maybe you know you can’t _
_Because of him_
_And I love him of course_
_But I love you too_
_And I know we can’t be_
_But it’s a shame we’ll never know_
_If we could_
_I always knew you’d be in my life_
_At my wedding_
_I never knew where’d you be_
_In the crowd _
_Or standing with me_
_But now I know _
_You’ll be there_
_Not standing_
_Just sitting _
_Watching with those eyes_
_Maybe wondering what could have been_
_But it’s too late _
_Because you left_
_And I found him_
_The one who will stand with me_
_And I love him_
_But I love you too_
And I know
You’ll always be there
Looking at me
with those eyes
