These Eyes Seek You
These eyes seek you
between here and there
In that place where
lonely hearts beat one to one.
They seek you
beyond that thin fine line
where the burnt orange of fire
meets the silver-edge of the ocean
Where its heat impregnates
the dormant tide with
a spell-binding mirage.
These eyes seek you
between two mocking worlds
where strong monsoons
blow away each falling star.
They seek you through infinite distance
where the smell of salt-spray
fills night's misty air
and where the scent of musky roses
blooms throughout the year.
They seek you across silhouetted sails
against a glowing moon.
These eyes,these noisettes eyes
move like last shadows of sea-gulls
Soaring high in darkest of places
Fearless,on the verge of nothingness.
They seek,they search,they roam
They roam across the sky-line
which separates our paths
Our deserts and waters
Our lands and Our hands
But not our dreams.
Our dreams will not be taken
Of dreams We are belongers
And it is there where I live
It is there where I would not exist
It is there where these eyes
will often be solaced
by the comfort of your arms.
