Mr. Dunce inspired me to write about eyes..

This is no where NEAR as good as his piece... but I kinda like it..

Eyes.
They glow.
Some say they are windows to the soul.
I am drawn to meet their gaze
with my own, but
the feelings they express
make me break away.
Those windows
to your soul-
I'm afraid to look through.
If I see your soul-
suddenly you will become frighteningly real.
If you are real-
well then, I can't laugh you off.
And I'll have lost
my only escape route.

  1. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for showing me that there are more to eyes than what I've been writing. After "You Eyes (Orbs Divine)" I had the hardest time thinking of something to write about that didn't seem to repeat what I'd already written. This piece is a load of help, even if I did read it a little late.
