The Eyes That Spoke…

I’ve known this girl for sometime

I thought, I knew her well

Always cheerful and smiling

Her charm would cast a spell

Her eyes spoke every word she uttered

And they spoke of

A graceful aura,

A genius brain,

A happy heart

And

A beautiful mind…

One day, with just the both of us there,

I spoke about my life's reds and blues
observing the world's most expressive eyes

Thought to her life, I’ll find some clues

But I was astonished to notice, what no one did till now

That they proved to just accompany her in

Her efforts to fake smile,

Her sleepless nights,

Her lifelong pretence

And

Her true innocence…

My concern for her made me

Ask her, “Oh, what’s wrong my dear?”

“Nothing, I’m fine and happy”

She said, as I moved near

Now those eyes stared back at me

And they were, a gateway to

A broken trust,

A shattered hope,

An endless pain

And

A devoured soul…
