In Your Eyes


your eyes are the color of want
piercing the forbidden place
diving straight through strength
touching a weakness in me
what is the magic of this hold
it brings out such an ache in me
in a glance that melts my knees

"be prepared to bleed"  Joni Mitchell

To have such eyes would be a great gift.

You are a great poet!

Helen, I was going to copy a couple of lines and tell you how much I liked them, but I found that I liked every line so much I could not break them apart -- really, really good poem!   ....jo
