Your EYES Have Stories

Your eyes are cute, they shine so bright, But there's a story hiding inside. When l look in, l see the truth, So many feelings, so much proof. Behind your smile, there's more to see, A world of thoughts you keep from me. I want to know what lies beneath, The hidden tales, the joy, the grief. l often wonder, what's your story? What makes you smile? what brings you worry? But I'm afraid to ask you why, What if you don't want to rely? So l just watch and hope to find, The secrets held in your lovely mind. Your eyes speak words l long to hear, But still, l hold back, gripped by fear. l hope one day you'll let me see, The depper parts, the real you, free. For in your eyes, l feel a spark, A beautiful story waiting in the dark. Ntombikayise
