A Woman's Gaze

A Woman's Gaze

For Centuries, men have tried to unravel the mystery
in a woman's gaze. It can be full of torture, or it can 
be full of love. many men have fallen in love with the
eyes of a woman, not even knowing why.

They were just captivated by her gaze. Artists have tried
painting pictures, to capture the beauty that lays deep
within. What is it that they are looking for? Is it something 
in her past life, or the beauty in her soul? They don't know,
but the search goes on.

Could it be the mystery of her love? Only the true meaning
of the glean of her eyes - conceals some of the torture, or 
some of the love, she has endured. Who can tell if there is 
hate, or she feels pain - or if she loves, by looking deep.
Maybe it's a mystery that's far too deep.

Each woman, carries a mystery, that can't be revealed to
just anyone. The mystery she carries is the true meaning of
love. It's like having a key to open a door" not all the keys 
fit. Do I need to tell you more?...

Demetrios Trifiatis February 9, 2013 at 6:27 AM Yes, dear Lucilla, Woman is a Mystery waiting to be discovered and when you discover her, A key is not enough to open her hart but rather it requires a combination of keys. And since woman Is like the moon mysterious, even when man sees the full moon, still he has to deal with the unseen side! Beautiful poem with many revelations about women that only woman: THIS MASTERPIECE OF DIVINE INSPIRATION knows. Excellent work! Thank you
