Secret Woman

The reflection in your eyes
Hide the sad lines of beauty
Mirrored in your own little ocean
Touched a thousand secrets
Who sees behind the smile
Enigmatic soul gone before me
So calm, but never passive
Touched a thousand secrets
The reflection in your eyes
Drown the life before me
So clear, tranquil, almost pitying
Touched a thousand secrets
Goodbye my distant lady
The night has seen you gone
No glance to say, no feelings
Touched a thousand secrets
The reflection in your eyes
Crept inside my soul
Mysterious lady, thoughts so deep
Tried to touch your mind
The reflection in your eyes
Like the ocean taking me further away
Beautiful enigmatic lady
Touched a thousand secrets.

I think this is a poem that will give cause to read more than once and they will remember the poem and the Author, Nicely judged and definitely stimulating for brain cells. Also many readers may relate to their own encounters. Regards David in NZ

Yes, everyone should have a mysterious woman pass through their life at some point.

A mystery woman, how intriguing. I like the repeating lines, almost a sonnet, Paul.

Still a mystery.

Our styles are definitely similar. I enjoyed the repetition of lines and air of implications.
