Can you know someone from a look alone
Can your life be changed from a stare?
One fateful day, you peered my way
And my best laid plans gave way to a dare
Searching a graze from your magical gaze
Into my daydreams, I stole
Lust for a hint of an iris's glint
Suddenly tangled in curtains of your soul
But what's in a look that can make someone fall?
Can a look, love, somehow ensnare?
You gave me a glance that made my heart dance
And now I look for that look everywhere.

This poem carries a powerful paradox. When we meet someone, especially women, we make a judgment in an instant whether we like that person or not, and all on the basis of looks. But this all we have for people don`t come to us we the whole life-story revealed to us.
