Eyes that Speak

by Vinay Krishnan

[box]Vinay Krishnan expresses his admiration and respect for an inspiring pair of eyes that belong to a woman, through a poem.[/box]

Thoughts that speak so quietly,
Tears that flow invisibly.
Her heart clutched hard within herself,
Her life is nothing off the bookshelf.
Facing tough times with a smile on her face,
She tackles difficulties with her strength and grace.
A conversation sufficed to get me off my seat,
Seeing a girl this strong, I had to admit defeat.
I’d thought I’d faced the worst, but I was proved wrong,
By a girl with a mind and heart this strong.
She says not a word, when in pain no solace does she seek,
But I read her heart through her eyes that speak.
Is it love I do not know, but I know this,
She’s a girl I respect a lot, than dismiss.
It’s not just her beauty or her smile and voice,
But something that’s louder to the heart amidst any noise.
She says not a word, when hurt, no comfort does she seek,
But I read her heart through her eyes that speak.
Her eyes I see, I see every day,
She’s my best friend now, in every way.
I have good days and then some bad,
Some heavenly and some demon-clad.
But on those days I feel I can’t endure, I turn to her,
And those eyes that speak, they see me better.
