Pretty smooth read and sweet sentiment. When you're ready you might want to consider working with less common rhymes, you/do? Some notes below.

Pensive Glance

You ask why do I often look at you A bit awkward, possibly "You ask why I so often look at you"
now that old age has robbed us of our youth.
I say its simply something that I do
for pleasure dear, and that is simple truth. possibly comma after pleasure.
Your eyes, as bright as they have ever been,
still indicate to me the way you feel.
They tell me nothing ever came between
the two of us, and love itself is real.
Your lips, so ever ready with a smile,
I know will always welcome with a kiss, Possibly "greet me' instead of "welcome".
an honest grin without a hint of guile,
reminder of our early nights of bliss.
I know we’re old and years must have their way.
Still in your face, a glimpse of yesterday.
