Song of the Eyes

A Poem by Mason Rayburn

True expression
Given form
Sea of white
Iris bold
True expression
Lies in the eyes
Hidden truths
Painful lies
Show your pain
Show your joy
Gleaming eyes
Fetching sparkle
Let not your eyes
Grow cloudy and dim
I see now
With tears, they brim
I'll take the pain
If you soften your eyes
Let them sing
As they did before
The song of your eyes
Is what I long for
