The Truth In Our Eyes

Words were spoken mind to mind as pictures floated over head The liquid eyes were full of tears deeper than sleepy ocean beds I could see the souls mighty struggle to hold back its salty drops When it rains it tends to pour seeming as though it'll never stop Regret surfaced from murky depths showing itself from miles away They say that eyes never lie & always show what they want to say I telegraph my forgiveness for I understand they knew it not The eyes are doors to hidden thoughts & let you in without a knock They painted pictures without a brush laying bare what wasn't said They never said what they were thinking but I could see inside the head I forgive but I don't forget what the eyes want me to see When they show it, you must believe even if they mask what isn't seen

Beautifully put and nicely written. They say the eyes tell you what’s in the Soul. Sadly few people look into the eyes. Enjoy your day.
