Disappearing depths of understanding,
hidden pools of grief and misery,
windows to the heart and inner soul;
eyes reveal whatever we may be.
Portals to the place of deep compassion,
doors which open in to endless realms,
caverns where the self has taken refuge;
so they keep the secrets of ourselves.

I love this contrast...eyes truly can be windows or caverns...
ReplyDeleteYes, eyes do not hide what is beneath...whether it be misery or understanding.
ReplyDeleteeyes are def the portals of the heart...and if you really look at them, you can def read someone...i wish that cavern of contained a bit more compassion and less self...but compassion starts with self as well...
ReplyDeleteThis is incredibly lovely ...
ReplyDeleteEndless realms - Captures the longing and hope that is there within the soul. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteYes eyes have many aspects--both windows and caverns.
ReplyDeleteeyes nicely described in this fantastic piece of poetry, loved it
ReplyDeleteLost In Her Eyes
Yes, eyes can be portals open wide inviting ingress, but also they can be impassable crystal windows that keep our own thoughts in and not allow anyone access...
