A Tale of Two Eyes

What I see in your lovely eyes,
I‘ve never seen before
The slight moisture in them
Full of benevolence warmth and care
And love…..for me

One look into my eyes
And they tell you
Everything that’s within me-
Happiness, sorrow, worries,
And love…..for you

Piercing gaze you have
As if x-raying me and my emotions
But with a smile so lovely
On your face
Giving me no reason to complain

Every time you wink at me
You seem to understand me 
Better than ever before
Comforting me
Assuring me
That everything’s going to be fine
That you shall stand beside me
Always 
Whether in bright morrows of exuberance
Or in moonless nights of gloom

That you will forever be there
Loving, caring, supporting and protecting me
The way a fruit preserves a seed
The way sepals tend a bud
Like an oyster guarding the pearl in it

We communicate
Less with speech
And more with our eyes
How well u comprehend my expressions
How precisely u perceive the unsaid
And how captivatingly you respond
Surprising me with every grin
And turning my cheeks pink

And this indeed…
Is the reason why
I tend to avoid 
Your gazing eyes
Scared as I am-
What if you discover?
The secret I intend to hide
Beneath the depths of my tiny eyes
