Eyes.

Eyes.

A Poem by Aehr

I wonder how, when people look into your eyes
They see everything not very special
They see-  
The normality of the placid browns in your irises
When you don't even realize they're looking
But not the light reflecting a thousand rainbows
When you squint up at the sun
They see- 
Nothing, but that your eyes are closed
When you fall asleep
But don't think about the things you're probably seeing
In the dreams playing behind your eyelids
They see-
The way your eyes seem to spit fire when 
Rage unsettles your mind
But not the long lashes shielding the secrets
You probably hide everyday

The eyes hold many secrets and we are forever looking into someones eyes attempting to figure them out. Well done.

you deserve that
Eyes are windows to your soul. If you look into someone's eyes you can tell when they are happy and when they are sad. This writing is awesome and I, like others, see nothing wrong with it or the title. Good write Rhea.
