Eyes

verse I

eyes
it's all I see
piercing through the shadow
too fallow for me

eyes
blue in disguise
with spider web footprints
and golden ties

ch

they're on your face
right above your nose
the soul comes out
in those windows
and when you leave
it never goes

verse II

holes
inside my heart
you're painting with my pain
and calling it art

I've seen your face
but don't know where to go
I think I'll talk to your eyes
they say the most

(ch)

bridge

verse III

those eyes
they're all I see
they're all I hear
they're all I breathe

yet your eyes
satisfy
the colours in my mind
with spiderweb footprints
and golden ties...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

A song I wrote.

Reviews

[J.Black]

I find music far more emotional then poetry or any piece of writing. Why? Simply because it allows the composer to really dig deep into the words and make them come to life. Reading them off a paper out loud is effortless- but it's when you sing them to someone, they mean the most. This poem speaks volumes and paints a beautiful imagery- since our eyes ARE the windows to a persons soul. If you can't see through them clearly- they're not meant to be cleaned. You're meant to walk away and find yourself a new window to stare at. And once you can see her eyes- there will always be more songs to make from them. Great job.

I'd love to actually hear it! I enjoyed reading this! Clearly a favourite!

[Coyote Poetry]

A amazing poem and song. I like the eyes on a woman. They can tell you wise and great stories. A outstanding poem. Words and movement of poem was very good. Thank you.

There's something about eyes that both terrify and fascinate me.
it takes forever for me to actually look someone straight in the eyes, because I'm afraid that they'll see right through me, strange and nutty as that sounds, heh.

I'd say that this is a lot more straight-forward than what you usually write, but that's not a bad thing at all.

I think that maybe someone's made a mark on you.

You can get so lost staring into someones eyes... They can give you away sometimes, as you say "...they say the most"

" with spiderweb footprints and golden ties" - I like the sound of those lines.

Seems like it would be a nice song.
