Eyes

Bright orbs that shimmer, secrets yet untold, They pierce the dark and trace the fading light. Through love and loss, their silent stories hold, A world within each gaze—so soft, so bright. They search the hearts once open, now concealed, Reflecting dreams that linger, lost in fire. Some truths they guard, while others are revealed, Mirrors of passion, sorrow, and desire. They cast their scorn with but a fleeting glance, Or close in rest when weary shadows call. They wake when hope and dreams again advance, And greet the dawn with wisdom standing tall. Through time they bow to truth, no lies remain, For eyes alone see love’s sweet joy and pain.

I admire sonnets. Your poem is beautifully crafted, each line carries a quiet intensity, painting the eyes as vessels of unspoken stories and deep emotions. The way you weave love, loss, and reflection into this sonnet is truly moving. Thank you for sharing!
