Two eyes
hamad
I gazed at her so much,
As much as one could be gazed at.
But still, with two eyes,
How much can one gaze after all ?
These eyes
lunamist
I’ve seen eyes that capture all that I am and pull it to the front so I see it all, good and bad.
Eyes that looked so deep I imagine I could fall into them and get lost.
Eyes that have seen until the end of the world and so much more.
Eyes that hold captive the beasts that dwell where we dare not go and put them to a deep sleep.
Eyes that have power and strength and ideas good enough to topple the world,
The same eyes that need nothing more than a warm mug of tea
And another pair of eyes to share the world with.
Eyes
Imagine your eyes speaking.
Are you one of those blind followers?
One of those who just let their eyes see good to feel good? Avoiding injustice, poverty, sadness, racism. Imagine what your eyes would tell you.
Her Eyes
Author: P. Musk
I gaze into your eyes, a starlit sea,
Where depths of mystery and wonder gleam.
Each iris, flecked with gold, a sunlit beam,
That draws my soul in sweet captivity.
The lashes, dark and long, like tendrils sway,
Framing the dance of light within your gaze.
A million unspoken thoughts in their soft maze,
Where secrets bloom and dreams take flight away.
Oh, how I long to dive into their blue,
And swim among the constellations bright,
To trace the map of love in purest light,
And find my home reflected back to you.
For in your eyes, the universe takes hold,
A world of beauty, precious and untold.
Pretty Eyes
Author: N. Ellis
A maiden with eyes of the sea,
Could launch a thousand ships, don't you agree?
Her glance, a typhoon,
Could sweep hearts right soon,
And leave sailors adrift, you see!
Blue and Green Eyes
Author: P. Samuel
In depths of blue, a sapphire gleam,
Where oceans dance in sunlit dream.
A splash of green, an emerald spark,
A forest whispers in the dark.
Two worlds entwined, a mystic hue,
Where skies and seas forever woo.
A brushstroke soft, a teardrop's trace,
A universe reflected in this space.
They hold the secrets of the dawn,
When light first kissed the world, newborn.
The wisdom whispered by the moon,
The shadows dancing in the noon.
Oh, eyes of blue and verdant green,
A tapestry where dreams convene.
I lose myself within your gaze,
In endless depths of emerald haze.
So let me wander, lost and free,
In galaxies that bloom in thee.
For in your eyes, my world is found,
A paradise on sacred ground.
Poetry About Eyes
Your eyes speak softly in the night,
Like distant stars with silver light.
No need for words, no need for sound,
In your gaze, whole worlds are found.
They carry dreams the heart can’t say,
And guide lost souls along their way.
A gentle spark, a burning flame,
No two eyes ever look the same.
I see the sunrise in their glow,
The quiet rivers as they flow.
Secrets hidden, deep and wise,
Reflected in your beautiful eyes.
When sorrow falls like winter rain,
Your eyes reveal both love and pain.
Yet through the storm, they brightly shine,
A light that feels forever mine.
So let me linger for a while,
Within their warmth, their silent smile.
For every truth beneath the skies
Lives in the wonder of your eyes. ✨👁️💖
Brown Eyes
I could stare into her brown eyes for hours.
Never ending valleys and caves to scour.
Everyone says they aren't special,
but to me they mean the world.
Every time she looks at the light,
I feel like my stomach is in a fight.
The hints of gold suit her well.
Why did she have to go?
Her Eyes ~ Lovely Poisonous Black Lotus
Her enticingly hypnotic eyes are the first thing I see.
The doorway to a forbidden place -
I can not break free.
Her eyes draw me to come near - though I sense to come
closer- only builds fear.
What does she really want with me - my life, my blood to
feed her hungry lust?!
The fear & horror filling me until my whole body feels
like it might bust.
I can not fight the wicked power anymore.
Beautiful Black Poisonous Lotus kiss my lips and let
me take my last breath.
Lovely Black Poisonous Lotus love me to Death.
