An Inspirational Walk Home

Not sure where it came from, but the first four lines popped into my head while I was walking home today, so i decided to put it to paper and see what I came up with when I got home.

An Unseen Cry

If only you knew,
by looking in those eyes.
The despair they contain,
from hope and longing.
They have but one desire,
that deus ex machina
you call your love,
and the hope it brings.
But you couldn't tell.
You sat and stared,
those eyes telling the story,
a deafening cry.
The cry falls short,
never reaching your eyes
as you look right through.
If only you knew.
