Theme : Feelings
Anonymous Eyes
by Jayati Chowdhury

Ethereal moist eyes
So blue and deep
I almost drowned
In the depth of her snowy azure sea.
Her eyes were like
Ocean of emotions
Grief sailed like a ship
Glimpsed from afar.
A tear drop trickled down
When she blinked
That droplet composed a verse
In mournful theme.

Her austere eyes
Cautiously evaded all
She seemed confined to
Her forbidden world.
She cloaked her distress
With her darting lids
Her heaving breath
Silently expressed her grief.
Her pain must have accumulated
Over the years and years
Like sand particles accrue
To form barren islands.

Her melancholic eyes
Pierced through my heart
I wanted to comfort her
She disembarked from the bus.
The remarkable eyes
Its soreness so touching
And she will remain forever
A beholder’s 'anonymous eyes'.
