Eyes

Piercing through a sea of faces,
Eyes that hit a sullen heart,
Mellow down in a flushing rain;
Of soft notations and mysterious somethings.

Seated across a barricade of power,
They darted forth in cruel recklessness,
Driving up an untouched veneer to the pinnacle,
Of unknown pleasures and unfamiliar trepidations.

Blinded by the single slight,
One crept into dreamy fogginess
With throbbing thoughts from a single encounter,
Of enigma, of flawless madness.

Thank you for the kind words! As for the muse, I leave the interpretation to your imagination.
