your eyes show,
the depth of your soul
though in slow steps, you grow —
through the efforts you made
to hide that heartache.
your eyes speak,
everything you wished you had the courage to say
these words on the tip of your tongue, they lay —
but yet your mouth dries up
staying meek.
your eyes speak,
for the meaning of the world you seek
looking into the souls of people spanning far and wide —
just seeking
for that light.
this is why they say,
that your eyes show
for behind every glow —
your eyes stay
as windows to your soul.
