Eyes

The eyes reveal more than one imagines

An eye that keeps the shadows,
a bottomless, nameless well.
In its glow, truths drown
that were never meant to be told.

Black, like the silence
before the soul breaks apart,
like tears falling softly
without asking the dark.

You look… and something dies,
slowly, without a sound.
Because some eyes don’t just see�"
they pull you underground.

A simple glance can say so much. The eyes are the windows to the soul. The eyes can reveal secrets. Enjoyed reading your poem today. Thank you.
