The Eyes Tell All

When I look into your eyes,

I can see something is wrong.

Your eyes show everything

that you try to hide.

It shows all your pain, joy,

anger, and fears, both past

and present.

The eyes are the key to the

soul so of course everything

will be shown.

You can control the emotions

that play on your face but

you can't control the emotions

that show in your eyes.

I, on the other hand, have

learned a way to hide all this.

Since I know the truth, I've

found a way to hide it all.

I won't tell you how for that

you have to learn on your own.

Once you learn, then maybe you

can tell what my eyes try to say.

No matter what though, I will be

able to tell for your eyes

tell all.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this poem because I have always been able to tell a lot about a person by their eyes.  I was talking to my bf about it and he told me that it was still hard to tell what I was feeling.  This poem just is a reflection of a lot of things that have happened in my life as well.
