Grey-Blue Eyes

Grey-Blue eyes
The entire sight
Grey-Blue eyes
What is there?
In those doorways?
What sight do you see?
How many layers can you peal away?
Do you see what all see?
Do you hear the whispers?
A thousand volumes are spoken in those eyes
A million memories surface
Do you see the pain?
The ache so clearly marked?
The loneliness hidden beneath the smiles
Grey-Blue eyes
The sing
Not only of sorrow
But of a bewildered happiness
And a determination to move forward
Grey-Blue eyes
