IN EYE
I found your hidden daggers,
with the blood stains of many men.
I could have read your eyes,
but kept myself blind instead.
The tarnished silver cross,
against your naked breast.
Lied a dying faith,
so I ripped it off from around your neck.
I found your hidden demon,
painted over with vivid color.
Is it up to me to slay the beast,
so you can't do this to another?
with the blood stains of many men.

so you can't do this to another?

Hey,
I recently wrote a poem, 'Eyes' which is a love poem (transcreation from a sindhi poet). It is interesting to see how varied people can write on the same topic. I like the dark element in your poetry. A good read indeed.
