IF EYES COULD TELL...

-->

Running from one’s troubles

Like walking under the rain naked to keep your dress dry

Chasing happiness, like running after a vague shadow

Loneliness in the midst of a thousand friends

A mans greatest conundrum

My heart is burdened by these mishaps

My fate I can’t untangle

If global warming could melt my bothers

If my eyes could explain this outpour

Things my mouth have become dumb to say

Quieted… reason unbeknownst to me

Fearing the chaos it may trigger

If only these tears be ceased for words be said

For a million linger unleashed

Making a million pokers of my heart

If love was in the eyes

          You’d still be here

If innosense could parade itself in the eyes

          You’d stil have life

If feeling left my heart and stuck to me eyes

Unravelled the tendrils of our lives

…if eyes could tell
