Your Eyes Burn Right Through My Soul Poem by Gert Strydom

Your eyes burn right through my soul,
leave marks there
that I cannot extinguish.

At times your eyes are aflame with anger,
like thunder
that is only looking for a place to happen.

Sometimes your eyes flow soothing
like the ocean
and embraces me to spend time with you.

Sometimes there are depths in your eyes
that I cannot fathom, shadows beyond which
unknown emotions, people and places are hiding
and still I want to spend time with you when I can.
