The Pain of Eyes Most it seems are content to engage in small talk a verbal banter like fighters in a contest dancing around the ring for a prize that for the most part is measured in bruises. Though, if one explores the depth of conversation beyond the fringe areas and past the fences we build around our existence, there lie treasures that defy the imagination. On one such journey I happened to discover in the tone of your voice the pain of your eyes and felt your hurt in my heart. Robert |

such a very true and powerful statement. words never mean as much as the actions if you take the time to look behind them. beautiful work. |

I love this poem. Looking beyond the words of a conversation can show us so much...as you have so perfectly stated. Well done! Simple words from a simple guy |
