Bright Eyes

With eyes like city lights, 
You make me feel alive. 
With a heart so deep in life, 
You push me to dive. 
I see such light in your spirit, 
Different from the sun. 
More like a forest fire,  
Putting others on the run. 
Why can't I be like you? 
Fearless in the world. 
Instead, I am nameless, 
Known as the "shy girl." 
My green eyes are shaded 
Like an evergreen tree. 
You scare me because you are rare. 
You are faultless and free.  
Now I am begging you, 
Boy with bright eyes. 
Show me how to boldly 
Start a fire in mine.
