The Eyes Tell a Story

The eyes tell a story.
They’re a window to the soul,
A peep-hole through the door,
A mirror reflecting your personality.
Your eyes tell a story of what’s on the inside.

The eyes tell a story.
They’re your mother’s soft hand
That you ever so gently grasped
When you rolled down the hill
And played in the grass.
Your eyes tell a story of the past.

The eyes tell a story.
They’re your hopes and dreams
Of being successful,
And playing on movie screens.
Your eyes tell a story of your imaginings.

The eyes tell a story.
They show what’s on the inside,
Tell a story of the past,
Reflect your hopes and dreams,
But mostly,
They tell a story of your
Beautiful, important life.
