The Music Eye
Anything one looks at can be the next best tune

The Music Eye
An eye looks out
through falling notes,
as music curls
around the skin.
The lashes sweep
like strokes of ink,
where melodies
begin to rise.
The notes fall soft
in scattered lines
like whispered tunes
that fade and stay.
They twist and climb
through quiet thoughts,
through hidden ache
behind the gaze.
The eye holds storms
of silent hurt,
of aching songs
that never rest.
Each marking moves
with gentle shake
with stories kept
in shadows deep.
I see the truth
within that shine,
a heart laid bare
through drifting sound.
And in that gaze
the music breathes,
the music heals,
the music stays.

I've been writing poetry since the age of fourteen. With pen in hand, I wander through realms unseen. The pen holds power; ink reveals hidden thoughts. A poet may speak truth or weave a tale. You decide. Let pen and ink capture your mind❤️

Very nicely done, Marie. You really nailed this one and a great image to go with.
Music adds a lot to one's living life and letting us show our feelings one way or another. Music makes the world go around. Good job.
Great
I love this, Marie. The poem is awesome! And your cover photo pulled me in the instant I signed in and saw it. I once took acid in the 1980s and saw music fly out of a stero speaker, then out a window. I've been intrigued by crossed senses ever since. You're a true artist. ⚡️🫶
