I've been listening to your eyes

I've been listening to your eyes And I heard of them recounting A past life connected to an afterlife Filled with love and passion As they drown and succumb to the beauty Of mysticism as it sparkles with the mystery of existence I've been listening to your eyes And in their poetic serenades I felt your longing to merge with my fate As you thirst for the divine as intensely As I do and you can see, surrounding me, A garden which never gets hit by lightning! I've been listening to your eyes And I've started to wonder At how I could have been deaf all this time? Was I following the instructions from the skies? Or was I merely deluded, thinking that I am in an Evergreen valley while it was just a photo stuck on a wall? I've been listening to your eyes as They glimmer with unspoken words which yearn to be said I can see in them a million moons lighting up my dark confinement I can see in them a hidden sanctuary which has not been explored yet I can see in them, the contented smile of the Gods as they feel comforted And this comfort gets transmitted to my heart As it flows from your eyes into the lines of my secret diary!
