THE WINDOW TO THE SOUL
Have you ever heard of that saying, 'eyes are the window to the soul'?
English Coach was talking about it today. He must have mentioned it ten times. He was comparing the quote to a book character and then to a movie character. I zoned out a little so I'm not positive.
When I got home, after eating 'dunch' I went up to my room. I sat down in front of my mirror that hung from my closet door. I wanted to find my soul, I wanted to see what others saw when they looked at me.
I didn't find anything as I stared into my eyes. They were a swirl of green and brown, nothing more, nothing less. What does that mean? Is my soul barren?
I'd really like to know. I had so hoped that my eyes reflected some emotion. A cry for help, a happy glimmer, a fake sparkle, but nothing. I looked void of any emotion.
My eyes had no connection to my soul. Because in my soul I felt the pain that cracked me and the despair that consumes me. My soul is not barren, but my eyes hold no emotion.

'Dunch' is a combination of lunch and dinner, like brunch.
