In Your Eyes In your eyes... I see hurt buried deep inside. I feel the pain in your heart And see it devestate you, An inner Tornado. I see you in tears... The memories of happy days gone by Running down your face. A flash-flood of grief and misery, Drowning you in Desolation. Yet... You return hatred with love. Contempt with respect: The one who pushed you away is rewarded. With your unconditional love. I understand... Your intense thoughts and feelings, Your intricate pattern of emotion, Your tangled web of life: I know why you are the way you are. I know.. Your every feeling And why you feel the way you do: For you are my reflection. We are one. Your eyes are the mirrors to my soul. ----------------------------------------------------- This is the first poem I ever wrote, in June of 1999. I actually wrote it to include in a piece of English Course work. Since then, I haven't been able to stop writing poetry...except for the odd dose of writer's block. Anyway, I just wanted to share my first-ever poem with Passions People. Love and hugs, Lizzie ![]() "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |

"Your eyes are the mirrors to my soul." Powerful. Are closed eyes the shutters of the heart?< !signature--> May your roof never fall in and those beneath it never fall out. Irish proverb. [This message has been edited by John the cat (edited 05-04-2000).] |

Wow...if only I could meet a man who could see this in me! You've described me perfectly here! Awesome, as Yu Lan said! ~~Jamie ![]() ![]() "I keep breaking all the promises That I keep making to myself You'd think by now that I'd be over this Instead I'm feeling sorry for myself So why does everything seem desperate now? I should be feeling so alive But it feels like something's missing Something's wrong somehow It feels like something deep inside has died..." --Stabbing Westward |
