A combo of poems

Windows of the soul

There are those who look directly into these windows
And search these souls
while others look at the house
And simply judge them without looking closely at the small details

Is it necessary to look
into the windows of the soul,
To form a relationship?
From a friendship to
A marriage
And for so much more

What do we see when we first look into these windows?
Nothing ever completely the same
Even when they seem the most similar

Some windows closed so tightly
So full of darkness
that not many are able to see what truly lie within
Some so full of light
Where everything seems so clear
To those around them
But are they hiding secrets behind those open looking windows
One never truly knows

But to those who are so tightly closed
Let those who truly seek to care,
open them slowly
And to those so full of light
Find someone who will protect that light from ever fading and
The window from ever breaking

To those who truly look into the souls of the windows
There are many in between
With different structures
Materials
Inspirations
Influences
Foundations
They are all built in a different time and place
Not one
Is the same

Let us remember that
Each of these houses
That hold these windows
Hold a different story

We are all different
