Paper, Has Talking Eyes
19 February, 2003
Author: ShyHeart
Our heart’s burst, for it is so, full of happiness, that we could cry,
Perhaps, it so full of sadness, that we can not bear, to go on
No relief for either thought, can we see, is very near…,
So, we write it down in secret, beware, “paper, has talking eyes.”
What we say honestly and feel, deep within our very souls
To private for us to share, even with, our best friend
We keep the feelings and the thoughts, to ourselves
Then we write them down, beware, “paper, has talking eyes.”
We use a name, that no one knows, then, we release our souls
Through a pen, ink begins to flow, what we say, know one will know?
It is a secret, shared from heart to soul, our pen does not lie
Be careful what you write, “paper, has talking eyes.”
Your pen is a mirror, of everything you want to hide, it betrays me
Taking all that belongs, to your very, private world, then speaks out loud
No secret can it keep, my pen is my heart and soul, and neither lie
So, be careful, what you write, I warn you…, “paper, has talking eyes.”
Poets, although, they may try, to hide the source of every word
The truth of their pen, will come to life, no way can you hide
The heart and soul, reveal you, to your self
Be careful, what you write, “paper, has talking eyes.”
