YOUR EYES.. It’s your eyes that perplex me They say one thing but I feel they mean another Sometimes they look at me with a distance Sometimes they look at me with a softness that quite simply melts my heart But it’s the in-between looks that tell me you yearn to be free Free to laugh and smile like you used to Free to take a risk and never count the cost Free to love again and enjoy the simple moments of being you Is that why you look at me like you do Is that why your eyes sometimes linger longer than they should Do you yearn for a new tomorrow Do you yearn for a new day Do you look for someone to give you the answer Do you look for someone to show you the way You don’t have to look too far as I’m standing very close Roniece Dawson-Bruce |

Strong words. Eyes can unveil much more that words can sometimes. Good stuff. Joe |

"It’s your eyes that perplex me They say one thing but I feel they mean another Sometimes they look at me with a distance" I like this part, I know how that feels |

I have always said the eyes are the gateway to one's soul. I truly believe that. Excellent write, penned perfectly for the message, loved the ending. |

Well, Miss Roniece, you are a poet. And that is what we do, write from the heart. The pen and the paper are our feelings and emotions and you epitomize poetry. Your feelings are feelings that, although I cannot speak for all, I can speak for myself in saying I've felt. Lovely write. I hope to read more of your heart. Junior Member, yv |

Roniece: do you have any idea how insightful this is? But it’s the in-between looks that tell me you yearn to be free to see those looks . . . Nice write xxoo |

(sigh) Oh Roniece, this is beautiful, sweet friend, the eyes truly speak so much and if we can read them like a book then the truth is certainly there! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Roniece, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |
