Giles's Record Collection Prompt: "My Father's Eyes" (Eric Clapton)
Notes: Post Season 5. Just when, I'll leave up to you
My father had the kindest eyes. Even at his most serious, you could always see the laughter lurking behind them.
After his Slayer’s death, I know he tried to be just as good of a father and husband as he was before. I never doubted that he was proud of me and it was obvious that he adored my mother. But his eyes were never the same. There was a sorrow in them that never quite went away.
I now think about that every morning when I look in the mirror and my father’s weary eyes stare back at me.
