The pain in your eyes.

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)

Epic

The pain in your eyes.

Your eyes show a soft glow, yet your pain, I can see a shadow. Your heart whispers, but it's unheard. I can feel the gentle touch and your warm smile, yet I can hear your silent scream that hangs in the air under the moon's pale light. I fear to know your true fight. May our souls unite. Tears blend in with the rain, and your love embraces and heals your hidden pain. Together, we will break the chain.

This poem is beautifully written and evokes a sense of empathy and compassion for the subject experiencing pain. The contrast between the soft glow in the eyes and the shadow of pain is very poignant. The imagery of the silent scream hanging in the air under the pale moonlight is haunting and powerful. The message of unity, healing, and breaking free from pain is hopeful and inspiring.

One suggestion for improvement could be to further develop the imagery and metaphors used in the poem to make the emotions and experiences of the subject even more vivid and impactful. Additionally, exploring the root cause of the pain and delving deeper into the internal struggle the subject is facing could add layers of complexity to the poem. Overall, this is a heartfelt and touching piece that resonates with readers on an emotional level. more »
