Your Ferocious Gaze
I crossed the path,
To meet your gaze.
Such a ferocious gaze.
It bore anger down upon your prey.
Curious horror came across my face.
I pulled you aside and,
Far, far away.
To find out why
You were after that prey.
I wanted to cry,
For the pain that showed in your eyes.
I grasped you close,
Oh so close to my breast.
To shush the beast inside.
The beast raged and roared,
To stay high above your best.
I hoped to clam him,
At least just a little.
To my surprise,
The beast I did sooth.
Back came you.
Your soul came flying free.
To finish taming thy beast.
Away went the beast,
Away went the ferocious gaze,
Away went the look of curious horror from my face.
Came falling down, the invisible tears of yours.
And mine did follow, as visible as day,
Because of the pain I sought,
In Your Ferocious Gaze.
