You once took my eyes for a ride
and my legs decided to follow.
I threw my doubts to the wind for
those magical seven digits.
You showed me the scars and bruises
life left on your heart.
In return I showed you what love looks like
in a build-a-bear box,
in a darkened movie theater,
in an abandoned living room.
You left my unfamiliar love for
the comfort of recognizable pain.
I opened the door for you
day after week after month after year
as you sought solace in my weakness
But don't forget;
memory lane leads to Lynnhaven mall
where you can always find a remnant
of what we had.
"Just don't be afraid if you catch a glimpse of us two, walking hand in hand, in a shiny store window."
Now I wrote those last 3 lines just to inspire you. I would never modify someone elses poem like that. Maybe it will inspire you to write a better ending. Or you could leave your last stanza like it is without the last line. That would make it sound more honest. I hope I've helped.
On "lies of the eyes" the world is full of the kind of lovers that will use and abuse you, but suffer through enough of them and you'll find that special someone who won't, but will instead "Bring ya lasagna to work."
