Her Eyes

Her Eyes

A Poem by Dave W.
"

There are some faces you never forget....

"
How can eyes pierce my heart so, 
with that look I am hers, 
those hands are now, 
the habitation of my heart, 
her face, 
angelic beauty only written about, 
how can words describe what my eyes see. 

Is this a heart attack? 
A panic attack? 
It is only the power of her form over my being, 
I am slayed, 
happily, I lay my life down.  

A chance meeting, 
a friendship formed, 
a bond created 

Her mind is beautiful, 
how can one person have this kind of control. 

In morning's mind she is there, 
in dreams she is waiting for me. 

I am consumed as I consume her image, 
who was I before, 
I am dissolved,
remade anew. 

There is not another, 
that can match her beauty, 
for it is the thing of myth, of legend, 
I am Sappho chronicling her image in prose.....

Eyes have a way of captivating the heart . .

' How can one person have this kind of control ? '
It just happens, and when it does, it's a wonderful feeling indeed.

It sounds like you're smitten. : )

This is so beautiful and romantic
Your thoughts take me beyond the clouds.

That's a great idea, Dave. A day at a time, that's how the future unfolds, dear friend...
words are futile, but you definitely gave it a good shot writing this poem.
why is woman so irrestible to a man? that is one of the big questions for sure. How can eyes pierce my heart so... indeed.

Yeah, they have such a sway over us for sure, it's hard to be strong when they melt us so easily
