Poem.

When I look in your eyes

Do not be embarrassed

I am not to entice

But to love and to cherish

 

If my light is your light

You are to take the lead

I’ve shown it all in my eyes

For you to be able to read

 

I will not let you go

From my dreams, from my heart

Though you do not seem to know

That you are to start

    The ladies have a way of showing and guys obviously have to make the move. Nice thought in here caught by the lines.

    I do like what you’ve done here, and the approach to the subject. This is a great subject actually… and one that often starts arguments. But from a man’s point of view… sometimes a womans hint is not as clear as she likes to think it is. Sometimes I’d have to be a psychic in order to read what was going on in the mind of a woman… because sometimes the eyes just don’t tell.

    btw… I’m assuming ‘entice’ is a typo and should be ‘enticed’.

    I find that sometimes men are afraid to take the lead. But Salaam is correct in that often what we women think are obvious hints, men are totally oblivious to.

    Actually, salaam, I liked ‘entice’, sounded to me more Ukranian somehow. But then Svetlana does far better with English than I could do with Ukranian. This is a very nice poem.

    Once you enter
    Through my eyes
    You will be trapped.

    None can help you leave
    As my eyes are
    A thing of joy for ever
    For one to perceive

    My eyes are yours,
    Cynosure of your eyes
    I mean, I am, how any one can
    From my eyes ever leave?

  • mkd1788 on Dec 2, 2009

  • LOVELY HONEY on Dec 17, 2009

    i see ur in my eyes you read my poetry also do read my eyes
    Once you enter
    Through my eyes
    You will be trapped.

    None can help you leave
    As my eyes are
    A thing of joy for ever
    For one to perceive

    My eyes are yours,
    Cynosure of your eyes
    I mean, I am, how any one can
    From my eyes ever leave?

    Today women don’t have to wait for the man to make the first move and most say they appreciate having a woman tell them in a direct way that they find them attractive and would like to get to know them better.
