Talking Eyes

If I told you that her eyes said it all, what do you suppose her eyes really said? Do you assume her eyes spoke to me of love, or do you think they wished that I were dead? Are you a romantic deep at heart who assumes a flirtatious point of view; or are you a true fatalist who has given the evil eye yourself a time or two? Did you immediately think it was a look of love beckoning to her bed; or was your thought it must be full of hate from a spurned eye looking at me instead? Well, since the look from those eyes was intended directly for me, I’ll keep the meaning behind the look my own little mystery.

Great form, Sherlock.....adorable...insightful...a little jazzy suspense sprinkled at the end. Personally, I think this girl JUST wanted u to stop and write a sultry poem about her! Gwendolen
