Eyes To the Soul

Grandma said People’s eyes are the key to their soul There are stories to be told Eyes can tell you a story of pain A story of joy A story of sorrow Eyes can tell you lies Or the truth Eyes of the old and of the youth Eyes can tell you a story of love A story of mystery Even a story of history Eyes can tell you myths Stories from the abyss Even stories of bliss Eyes can tell you a story of happiness A story of stories Eyes can tell you about worries Look into someone’s eyes when you talk You can read what they are all about You’ll walk away with no doubts A person’s mouth can tell you a lie Their actions can be of deceit But their eyes, they cannot defeat Eyes are key Because they will unfold The very essence of your soul
