HAVE YOU NO EYES?

The soul has no windows,
as far as I can see.
But the truth has a heart,
and getting to the heart of the truth
takes a lot of belief
and a bit of faith.
Your ears will hear
what your eyes will not receive.
Do not trust your eyes,
for you realize that the soul
of a person rests in the eyes of truth.
Why didn't I see that before?

  1. interesting thoughts..though I am inclined to embrace that the soul has windows (^_~) I also like your concept of the heart having eyes of truth for indeed it is the honesty of character that distinguishes a person.
