Your eyes beheld me
Flooded with a deluge of affection
Imprisoning me in depths unmeasured
Your gaze was long and penetrative
It made me flinch and reel
It cut through me like a dagger
I couldn’t escape its fire
I couldn’t break its chains
Your eyes, deep as ocean
Your eyes, seeing as wisdom
Your eyes, full as love
Your eyes, burning as hell
Your eyes, your eyes
I loved and feared.
Your eyes, your eyes I loved and feared. I see fear of the poetess as her own inner fears of ecstasy that the wine of loving eyes can bring for her. An amazing poem.
Pregnant with a passion that can only be felt by the heart and seen with eyes!
This poem can be viewed from aesthetic angle. I am not sure if you are describing the eyes of your beloved who is a living God to you or eyes of your only protector, God... loved this fascinating poem.
Its passion increases with every read! Well done Nosheen!
It cut through me like a dagger I couldn’t escape its fire I couldn’t break its chains How much of power, how much of magic....... how much of might, how much wizardry those eyes carried! It could equally ignite in you flames of passion as well as fear! Powerful portrayal..... Nosheen!
