Eyes of Truth

His eyes were as dark as a summer's night
what thoughts they did conceal
until his words brought out to light
his soul's need to reveal

His young mind wise beyond his years
his soul old as the sun
he knew her sadness, felt her tears
his kindness she could not shun

Perhaps she'd known him once before
in time long since gone by
Perhaps they'd walked through heaven's door
and soared a dark night's sky
