Look into My Eyes

I am happy that my writing group has started up again. I missed the last session and probably would have missed this week's session had it not been for technology (Go Skype!) I was able to attend via skype. Our writing exercise this week was to write about a part of the body. I chose the eye. Below is what I did for the exercise.  Let's just say it was an 'eye-opener' for me!

Look into My Eyes

They say that 'the eye is the window to your soul.'

But can you really know my secrets 

by looking into my eyes?

What do my eyes tell you

when they are filled with tears?

Is it sadness you see,

pent up frustrations, or fears?

What do my eyes tell you

when they rage with fire?

Is it anger you see,

my strong will, passions or desire?

What do my eyes tell you

when they are filled with light?

Is it happiness you see,

or a faith that leads to a path that's right?

My eyes may say many things 

but unless you have the key,

my soul remains locked

for only God and me.
