Oh My Gosh Darling, Your Eyes

Oh my gosh darling, your eyes They shimmer in the darkness, but remain pale in light How is it possible that they could mask everything How can you control them to do your bidding... I wondered why your eyes were so shiny at night But why, in the morning, the glisten was gone The shimmer that your tears created The shimmer that they used to hold All gone, with the arrival of morning Never once again could I see the life in them As if your soul had come out and never returned Until your night comes and you shrink to the darkness And in the darkness you are consoled Worries and fears, flood out with all those tears that you shed But morning comes again And your eyes go back to what they once were Oh my gosh darling, your eyes They are the barrier to those secrets you hide inside Why would you not want to show their beauty Their radiance Their light Why would you just shed from them the tears that have fallen Why would you never have them glisten in the morning Are those steel gray pupils the key to the inside? Oh my gosh darling, I wish I could see your eyes.

I like this, O Harry Potter fan! You have a style of your own; such freshness from a young writer like you (I take it you are around Sneha's age!). // paul

Thank you so so so so so much! Coming from great writers like you all, it means the world... I only started poetry a few months back and I am still very much a novice, so really, thank you so much for those words

Beyond bad a$$. It's difficult to sound as poetic as you do here with no structured rhyme. I loved it and I promise not to "borrow" any of these beautiful words without asking first =). Congratulations on an excellent write
