Eyes Poem by James Casey

Eyes

Her eyes captivated me
large and expressive
hinting at a dark secret
attempting to hide a deep pain
bordered by undesired tears
boring straight into my soul...

I lean forward to kiss her

Innocent in no way, but this
That look she throws at me
Makes me want to kiss

Every single part of her
Appeals to my mind, body and soul
She personifies mischief and love
Emotions that control.

Returning her look
Her eyes sparkling and my heart soars
She chuckles and says, ' come here',
As I do, she knows I am hers

To the soul
Mirrors of the stars
Reading my mind
From a universe afar

Richly stained colored glass
Reflecting mornings light
Shimmering heat
Replaces the starry night

Flames burning brightly
Icy shadows fall
Thunder and lightning
Dancing in the hall

Piercing suns glare
Reflecting moon beams
All that we hold dear
Held with in the eye's dream

Eyes are windows to the soul
A look from her eyes
I lose all control
