Your Eyes

While traveling on a train along the countryside of Italy I spotted a young lady on the platform, our eyes met as she boarded but as fate would have it the next stop was mine and we never got the chance to speak, but she forever touched me with her eyes!

 

                       YOUR EYES

 

                    Your eyes look through me

                    going straight to my soul,

                    unleashing a stream of emotions

                    that I can't seem to handle.

 

                    They ignite the rapid beating

                    of a once motionless heart,

                    stirring the lost passions of

                    my youth.

 

                    The summer-like warmth that now

                    consumes my entire body,

                    searches for a way to exhibit the

                    mind boggling affect your eyes

                    have on me.

 

                    They give meaning to an otherwise

                    meaningless world, Your Eyes.

 

                                            Josef Cannon
