"Window To The Soul"

        "Window To The Soul"

 

Her eyes were a window... to her soul,

showing small pieces, that once,

were completely whole.

And each was a part of yesterday,

Like parts of a puzzle..

that children often play.

To remove one part...

could destroy the rest;

destroy the good, and then shatter

...what was left.

Tears were reflected, and so,

was much pain;

her eyes wide open, her tears

falling like rain.

Gazing through the blur...

of today's tears;

knowing they could affect,

her soul for years.

Choices to make...so

the puzzle would fit

restore a soul...that lies in,

small and broken bits.

In her eyes, every thought

appears and reveals...

parts still broken and others,

that are half healed.

Inside...a longing, to draw

another deep inside;

the broken soul where lost love...

and pain live and abide.

Please...climb inside,

and help her soul to heal.

There are so many broken parts,

that open cracks reveal.

A need so deep...

to explain the pain and despair;

That the window to her soul,

has revealed...there.

Her heart needs a true love,

to come and stop the pain;

so her eyes can reveal...

a complete soul once again.

Powerful and true words.
"Her heart needs a true love,
to come and stop the pain;
so her eyes can reveal...
a complete soul once again."
The eyes can tell many stories. If we pay attention. We can see their past and their hope. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Sad but then hopeful for a miracle. Inside each one of us is a longing to be whole. Excellent...:)...........
