Do we take the time to notice
what's in another's eye?
Sometimes a little giggle
or a hint of being shy.
The first tear gathering
in preparation for a good cry!
The eyes tell a lot.
They can't keep things hidden.
You'll think things are under control
when all of a sudden.
They'll betray your feelings
revealing your true emotion.
How can we control
these back stabbing fiends
whose betrayal of our trust in them
rips into our being?
Leaving us naked to the world
at the mercy of all those seeing.
Twer I able to pluck out mine own eyes
I would!
Often I wonder if I should,
Just to punish them for their
heinous crime.
Be warned mine eyes,
you exist on borrowed time.

I love this Hayden. You have a way with words Mr Bass. Did i mention that I love this!
aha...ahmmm...ok
Recalling one of my earlier posts (poet as fraud), I just write. When I try to force it it doesn't come. Sometimes what I think I am writing is what actually comes out. Most times what I start disappears and something else finishes.
I'm fond of rhymes so I tend to see them come but you can tell when its forced.
Thanx for reading them and I'm happy that you like them.
Aleiya honey I'm not sure what to infer from your comment/lack there-of.
Sometimes I wish I could pluck them out myself. But then they serve al positive purposes, we just have to learn how to use them to our advantage.
best regards, nice info
