Have you ever looked at eyes before?

And I don’t mean simply looking,

but sinking into them—

feeling your entire body

coated in their waters.

Looking so deeply they distort,

no longer eyes but tunnels.

Tunnels that run deep into the bloodstream,

tracing back centuries,

carrying countless generations and their secrets.

 

Have you ever looked at eyes before?

Not just looking,

but letting yourself be unfolded by them

until you see your naked reflection

projected onto their wetness.

Looking so deeply you begin to feel

a sudden, physical discomfort—

someone has trespassed

right into you.

 

Have you ever looked at eyes before?

And realized there are always two—

each one bearing witness to the other

so that when you open those lids and see,

you can trust

you are seeing the truth.

 

Have you ever looked at eyes before?

And read the words written in their color,

watched them turn pages with each blink,

comprehending more easily

than their lips could articulate.

 

Eyes will show you more

than words can ever tell you.
