Many Eyes

We have many eyes; Even though we only see two. We have eyes 4 Beauty. These eyes see only the external beauty Of people and things around us; We have eyes 4 Temptation; these eyes are guided by greed, Lying and cheating. They are blinded, and they bring pain and instant gratification which is short lived; We have eyes 4 Sadness; these eyes give us away. They are honest, they express how we feel and Hide nothing; We have eyes 4 Happiness; they see the future. These eyes take risks; they make us gamble against our better senses. These eyes take no prisoners; Finally we have the eyes 4 Love; these eyes see inner beauty; They aren’t selfish; they allow you to see the suffering Of others; they are kind, generous and are never blurred. They let go when letting go makes others happy.
