I see you inside your eyes
and you've run away.
I see you in a sunset fading

As amazing as she is, so are you. This is such a passionate poem. So perfectly executed. Bravo!
The eyes, they say, are a window to the soul. You also define how they are a gateway to a special universe.
I was captivated by the title, and the flood of images that followed kept me enthralled line after line. Truly a remarkable distillation of the complex reality of existence captured in the glint of an eye. A delight to read and contemplate, dear poet. Bravo.
This is such a stunning write about love. Here is a love that awakens the soul to a surrealistic state. Two souls merge together and dissolve as a singular identity, making them born again to be consumed by a new fire of love! Great depth, Pamela!
Thanks Valsa. I think love is the basis for almost everything....or at least it should be. It makes life worth living.
I read the first line and thought what it meant. As I read further all started to make sense. Just a deep sense of where these feelings were coming from and where all is going. The photograph that your mother took has to be very special! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for your kind comments Savita. Yes, my mother's pictures is special. :)
This poem moved me. It has everything in it Jette. I wanted it not to end but it ended just perfectly. One of the best. Many thanks for sharing.
'I see you everywhere inside my eyes. I will always see inside your eyes. Our love is this way.' - Deep sense of love. Loved these lines.
An extremely deep poem, more here than just random emotions, the eyes are a dimension where a voice can be heard without ears, hearts can be read without eyes, very creative poetry, excellent
Thanks for reading Bill. The eyes tell so much. I thought of this poem when looking at a photograph my mother took of an eye with the reflection of a person running inside of if.
Soul has power of perception from inside. You have beautifully observed this creation. Eyes hold beauty of vision. Forgiveness is beautiful human value that shines like light to redeem soul from problems like darkness. Excellent idea is neatly expressed...10
Thanks so much for your thoughtful and deep comments! The soul with a power of perception of inside lends a new light. Thank you.
A stunning poem Jette. Valsa's comment 'love that awakens the soul to a surrealistic state ' has aptly described this relationship. And.... 'Everything grows from this leaving' How powerful this sentence is because in a sense we do grow so much from experiencing separation. And this: 'And I forgive you for your darkness, your light… for leaving me and never letting me go'. WOW...10+
Hi Simone. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my poem. It's great to see what you've been writing as well. Take care.
