Samy's Poetry

The Story behind Your Eyes

We glance across the room,

not knowing how we feel.

They say a picture shows a thousand words.

I can barely read what is written in your eyes.

I wonder what you think.

I wonder how you feel.

I wonder when you will give me a clue.

Your eyes are so deep.

It is hard to see the real you.

The talent behind the mask.

The man behind the boy.

The artist behind the joke.

You are the one I want to hold.

You are the one I must confront.

You confuse me,

you scare me,

you stare at me,

you turn me inside out,

but do you love me?

I glance once again

and I fall down into your deep eyes.
