Donate your lovely eyes

 

Lovely eyes

Your eyes are a beauty so very lovely

The gift of sight I want from you only.

As you look into my eyes

A wave of emotion does in me arise.

How I become so very eager,

To have you in full view

Wow, wow, can you ever review

How much I honestly love to see you.

 

Your eyes give me a shine,

In this world

I’d like them to be only mine.

Hope someone you will some day

With your lovely eyes also play

But ere I go the world shall know

Those eyes they belonged to me.

 

Donate your eyes ere it’s too late;

Many aspirants are waiting at your gate.

Someone will love to see through these

They will forever bless you

As you they so wonderfully please.

 

Some later day do remember the blind

My lovely eyes someone will also find.  

When of them we have really no need

Below the earth we will lie cold indeed.

 

Your eyes are for me

Mine are only yours

As long as we live but hopefully

Then someone else for these will long

Ours to us then no more shall belong.
