Eye's Can't Tell Lies

Eye's Can't Tell Lies

A Poem by Voice

 

 

Eye’s Can’t Tell Lies

 

Loneliness, lust

Pity and patients

Happiness, hostility

Seduction and sadness

 

Hate and love

Trust and distrust

Evil and innocents

Just and unjust

 

Whatever the emotion

It cannot hide

For eyes tell the truth

They have never lied

 

They can tell you stories

Of pain and despair

Past heartaches

Too hard to share

 

They can tell of secret loves

Romance and joy

Or the dreams hidden inside

Every little girl and boy

 

Eyes are the windows

Into the soul

And without them

We would never be whole

 

They have a gift

Though they could not know

The type of person inside

Is who they always will show

I like this poem. It has a nice flow and good abstract visuals. And the rhymes put the cherry on top.

What a great poem, and it is true the eyes can't lie! Although sociopaths can actually somewhat lie with their eyes which is pretty interesting. Good job!

Great poem! It was very well-written and flowed very nicely.
I've always loved this concept of a poem about eyes....and I agree with Darcy, there are many poems about eyes out there.
I wrote a poem about eyes, but it wasn't the same idea as yours.
Love your poem!

eyes are by far the number one body part people write poems about, I've wrote quite a few about them myself, and each one paints the same picture

I loved it!
