Behind My Eyes

I close my eyes and look beyond the lid
Into the depths of my darkened vision
I see things never seen before
I see things unreal, then I see black

I open my eyes and through my crystal blue windows
Everything becoming clear
Memory's paintings all around
Reminiscing with my eyes

I close my eyes and search again
My mind knows there is more
beyond the ball of light 
I see fading

I open my eyes to the old and the new
I bring with me the manifested
The substance of my inner vision
Now for all to see

Reviews

[J.L Hunter]

This is a really great poem. I always tell people that the most important thing about writing is not the grammatical issues or even clarity of prose but the way the prose presents itself, as something that flow through the lines smoothly. You did this well. When i get to the computer ill give you a more in depth review of your other writing.

Wow! You never disappoint me with your poetry. I really love the substance to your work.

I like this one a lot, that searching quality that we all have of looking within to find answers or, past feelings and re-manifest them in the present. At least that's how I connected with your words. Good write.

Great piece, well penned.

Clarity of thought, clarity of vision make for clarity of understanding! Comprehension is a filter of sorts that allows our brain to link our visual imagry with our conscious thoughts! Voila! Understanding! Another fine write! Bravo!
