Just a poem, for my blue eyed nephew. Love you boy. Thoughts please? Christian reminisces about Satine.

*~*

I once knew a face

That made the world seem a happy place

I once knew a smile

That made lonely days seem worthwhile

I once knew two blue eyes

That could wash away my sorrowful cries

But now the face of smiles has gone away

And I find it hard to think of words to say

There's an ache in my heart that keeps coming back

And a shadow over my head that makes the world turn black

Come on blue eyes, back where you belong

Come on blue eyes and I'll sing you a song

I once knew a voice of words

That sounded as sweet as singing birds

I once knew a laugh, loud and long

That made my heart beat on and on

I once knew a touch

That was never too little, nor too much

But now words are lost and laughter is faint

I have nothing but a picture of paint

There's a tear in my soul that's just a huge hole

Not even remembering what you stole

Come on blue eyes back to make it better

Come on blue eyes, just like in your letter

I once knew you, soaring above the rest

You were the best of the best

I once saw you, did you smile at me?

I loved you and set you free

I once thought of you and felt grand

You were with me and held my hand

But now you've flown from the best

And put my heartache to the test

Pain is just dull but that's worse after all

I'm on the edge, ready to fall

Come on blue eyes you know I love you

Blue eyes, with eyes so blue.
