Red veil

I watch you gaze at me
as your eyes turn dark
Just enough to swallow
All the light in the room

I almost can see gaps
Where you had slipped away
Just enough to leave you
Still hungry and empty

I want to clear my mind
Of who had shot you down
And who's face now reflects
Onto my silhouette

I am a big believer in the power of seeing someone's soul within their eyes.

"as your eyes turn dark
Just enough to swallow
All the light in the room"

Killer lines that really mean a lot to me.

"as your eyes turn dark
just enough to swallow
all the light in the room." Love this part of a very good poem, Juju.

Juju,


You're really very good.
It's another one I'd like to,
with your permission, add to my
Word File of poems by others.
