Mr. Blue Eyes

Padma Mynampty, NMH

saw you last night 

out the corner of my eye 

couldn’t look away 

cause you were too tempting 

my words went dry 

didn’t try to hide it though

Mr blue eyes 

tell me what is it like to be you

 

easy going 

darling, I wish

I cared a little less

 

what breaks your heart? 

what mends your world?

when your fist clench

where do you go?

who calls you home? 

or do you not know?

if you’re just getting by

on your own
