Glassless Windows

Glassless Windows

A Chapter by Dr. YumnaKay
"

Experimental.

"




They say:
"Eyes are the windows 
to one's soul."

But my windows;
they're glassless,
with only a frame.

I let you see,
what I want
to be seen.

And I avert
my eyes away
from your face.

Because the darkness
of my soul ...
would consume you

~ whole ~

Glassless.... Ah. Very nice. A nice poem, Yumna. Does this mean the glass of your eyes have already been shattered prior to this poem? I'd make a greek mythology reference but ah, theyre boring anyways. Sigh. Idk why, i just like this. Too relateable.... Sigh. :(

"the darkness
of my soul would
consume you whole" I looove those lines!
It's better to have glass-less windows than to cover them with rose colored glasses :)

Nice write, better to be a soul with depth than a window that's reflective. The eyes do have this soul attachment having a black iris. And we do show what we like to show.

Interesting perception. Reminds me of see-through eyes but controlled by the possessor not by the observer. Nicely penned seems still a little raw to be honest but it's a lovely basis for a good poem.
Again nice image you chose for your piece. I stay away from adding images as I want the readers to create their own ones.. But my mind is always so full of intense imagery, I often think more than in others...
