Behind Those Eyes Poem by Debra Masky

I vision that behind those eyes,
He has something to tell,
He has something that he is hiding away from me
For I can see in his smile
And the look in his eyes
That he has something to tell.

At times, I feel when he looks at me
That he wants to burst and yell
I can see that gush of words that
Comes to him and when he talks to me
I feel that within him is a voice so
Deep as if wanting to tell me a secret

It looks as if he is wearing a mask
Under that face,
Behind that smile,
And that look in his eyes
Oh surely there is something so deep
That he hides all his emotions
As if there is nothing to tell.
