EYES

Eyes Painting by Kevin Gallagher 

The Eyes – they weave a story beneath, 

A story waiting for something to reap, 

Looking like some sparkling ocean deep

Hiding dreams of a freedom fleet.

Carrying a calmly velvety feel; 

Eyes have tangled tales to reveal. 

The first glimpse of love is shone so bright 

In the eyes of the innocent, a foggy light 

The rage of angers, thundering roars, 

Blind out the sight against all odd shores. 

Where Emotions find their way to express; 

Where the heart depends to depress; 

Where the soul finds a suitable mate; 

Love at first sight happens at this gate. 

Quiet and calm, eyes don’t make noise, 

Still speak the truth without raising a voice. 

A look into them can make hearts go crazy 

A colour of love can make your world go hazy; 

Millions of tales, still the eyes never lie,

Countless feelings, still the eyes only shy,

When a peep of intimacy comes their way 

Eyes accept them smiling away 

Reflecting only a shimmering wave

A look so right, a shine so rare.

Eyes hold a silence, eyes can dare to scare

Eyes save a balance between death and prayers

Eyes express all in words no need to be told.

Eyes carry that depth within, can make the heart get sold.
