An eye for an eye
in wake of trepidation...
the midday sun hides.

Who adores an ancient lore chore
And loves to see gore and wage war
Yet sore pouring pain?
This stems from an old brain
A story of man’s evil core...

Some call me Majnun
Unpredictable Monsoon
When Eye Step In, Eye read the room
You don't know me, so don't assume
Enlightened Eye rise, Illuminated Eye bloom....

An Eye for an eye
one heart then two
to give and take
one, not without the other

Forever blackened,
Are my eyes,
An eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth,
They spared my teeth,
And claimed my eyes,
Though I deserve to have a blade,
Taken to my throat....

Life is a space
between you and I
time is a song
in my mind
distance exist
when eye can't meet eye
and we both well know
the color of the night.

An eye for an eye

A tooth for a tooth

A lie is a lie

The truth is the truth

I'll give just to give

I'll cry when I cry

I'll live just to live

I'll die when I die...

There is reflection in your passing by, there is a tooth an eye for an eye.
Come my dear, come quick some clear.
Arrive, now gone, I’ve met your type, good bye my love until next time....

fish eye to fish eye

in love's stony embrace

two rock fish kissing

Note: This haiku was created from 
my poem "Kissing Rocks."
I'm finding it fun to write different
forms for the same poem, with
small word changes....

Looking Back..

True! It happened
At the very first
sight,
Heart to heart
Eye to eye
Ear to ear
Cheek to cheek
Lip to lip
Joy defined...

But now,
Out of sight
Hurt to hurt
Eye for an eye
Ear for swear
Cheeky, more
Cheeky
Lips slip
Joy trampled!...

By whose trace does the lily beam?
And sweeping its exquisiteness 
Whose moonlit beauty
Do I see in the lily?
Who is the Eye of my eye;
Who is the soul of my heart?
 His beam of pride reveals his true self
His face of mystical Beauty,
His dignity seeps in my dreams...

There you are
Mad at me
Again
What I must do 
To tell you 
That I am just playing
Lol
When do you ever learn
That an eye plus an eye
Are not four eyes?
I can see only my eyes
Or is it your eyes I see
But it’s definitely not four eyes
So play with my rule okay?
Lol too funny...

I used to think an eye for an eye,
when people didn't talk but bite,
but then I got to thinking more,
do two wrongs make a right for sure,

And when it comes to keeping score,
do holding grudges help me more,
that's why I should forgive and forget,
instead of playing mind game roulette.

Eye saw u lookin at me
When eye turned around eye could not see
Eye wondered what it could be
Eye tried to find the link 2 me
Eye turn around 2 try 2 see
To find out what it meant 2 me
Like a snake coils around a tree
Eye turned and looked behind me
Eyez wide shut so eye can't see
To find u lookin right at me...

Forgiveness.
It’s not an easy word.
It’s hard to pronounce,
gets stuck in your throat.
What hurts more than sticks?
Words
that break your bones!
So you’re building walls,
ready, clutching stones.
An eye for an eye?
Seems to be fair business.
Unless
 YOU’RE THE ONE
asking for forgiveness
…

It just so happens to be
you and I together 
It just so happens to be
we can live forever

It just so happens to be 
an eye for an eye
It just so happens to be
none of us can fly

It just so happens to be 
music is my life
It just so happens to be
I can't see the light

It just so happens to be...

but why?...

There once was a couple of brats
who engaged in continuous spats.
The result was a tie
when each scratched out an eye -
an old-Biblical tit for a tat!

The brats awoke bleeding and weak
when, half-seeing the havoc they’d wreaked,
they discarded their clothes,
their behinds to expose -
a new-Biblical turning of cheek!...

Dear sweet child,
So full of anger and remorse,
Terrors running wild,
Be weary of this troubled course,

An eye for an eye,
Seems understandably justified, 
A comforting lie,
When you live every day terrified, 

Embrace your heart,
Break those cold rusty chains,
Time to make a new start,
And cherish the warmth that remains....
