*** My Eyes ***

In my eyes

You would see traces of darkness

Outlines of loneliness

And slivers of unleashed passion

In my eyes

You would see a salty sea

The waves would be frightening

The black water inviting

In my eyes

You would see a haunting

So dark and deep

Many look away in fear

In my eyes

You would see a fire raging

Ablaze with stifled passion

Awaiting your touch

In my eyes

If you look in them

And not through them

You would see forever
