Pathway To My Soul
I talked to him but kept my eyes turned away.
I did this with everyone I met.
It was a habit for me, I thought.
Little did I know it held significant meaning!
Our eyes are the pathway to our soul.
I did not want anyone to see the real me,
The bad person I thought I was;
Negative feelings, thoughts, actions...
Were hidden if no one looked on my eyes.
The physical body has feelings, but the soul goes so very much deeper with feeling!
It was the last thing that was mine that no one had seen!
I had to hide the pathway to my soul.
