Notes About The Poem

What eyes hide


Many different colours,
sizes and even shapes,
some are more beautiful,
others are just common,
some are more expressive,
others are just unexpressive.
Eyes can see, eyes can talk,
and beyond our eyes 
there are hidden worlds.
They can show happiness,
sadness, glory, love, 
passion and much more, 
but they also can be a wall
to look at; what eyes hide,
sometimes can be a mystery
for us to discover. 

Our soul mirror's eyes can be
when you can cross the main screen,
otherwise, they only are cold icebergs to avoid.
Oh...what eyes hide?,
we all want to see 
behind that challenging mirror,
behind the blue or the hazel,
the black, the green, or brown,
behind the enigma
of those, whose eyes don't talk for themselves.
What eyes hide
is our forever question,
which answer will aways be 
a big equation to solve.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

"behind the enigma of those, whose eyes don't talk for themselves." Indeed, being honest with self and others, is the foundation of Living Real.

Hello my dear Darlene, you are right. Only eyes can show emotions sometimes, but not in all the people. For sure, the clear eyes show everything. Thank you my dear Darlene. Love/María
