Eyes That See Through You I looked in on you you peered back at me there lies the difference. I see with eyes of depth, into the soul I try to gaze for value I am seeking. Your sight is one sided shallow is your perception you need not even speak your eyes say enough. I try to sustain my footing in this shared space but find the air sickening and stagnant. What passes your tongue does not have any pleasing attributes, no wonder you stand alone and shameless. The prevalent nature I possess affords clearer insight, I will always keep seeking the truths that bind me. Win you do not for no power do you possess, lack of foresight is what you have maintained not wisdom. Time I bid to be on my side for strength I gain in this one sided affair called unity. Wisdom fought for is untouchable, and puffed up is your pride which in the end you will lose, but freedom I possess. By, Cerenity [This message has been edited by Cerenity-1 (edited 04-15-2000).] |

And the light in your eyes makes me feel Like there's something much better out there Something kind... And I know someday I might be looking around Trying to find some purpose Well purpose it can't be that hard to find As long as I've got the wind... The wind and your love to carry me. vertical horizon |

Cerenity.... The brutal reality of your words leaves me speechless. I completely understand (through, of course, experience) every word that is in this poem. You did an excellent job (once again). You tend to express feelings I cannot in my poetry, Are you in my head? Are you psychic? or are you like me in many ways so that you can understand how I feel and have felt? GREAT WORK! I'm going to add yet another one of your poems to my favories archive! ![]() "It was my love that did us both to death. " -Sylvia Plath |
