Dead End Eyes

Thomas W Case



If her eyes were
a street,
they would be a
dead end.
There wouldn't be
a sign.
And if I drove
into them,
all the promising
landscape
and stunning scenery
would come to
an abrupt stop.
Such lies...
Those
dead-end eyes.

    Dear Thomas, your metaphor is off the charts with this one, I know a few with empty eyes, maybe sometimes the soul just gives up and leaves. Brilliant and so inspiring. šŸŒ¹

      I have seen eyes like that before. Dead end eyes often lead to a dead end relationship. A most clever write,

        There is no point of return, in that dead endā€¦ so watch out and turn with caution. Cool write, as always Thomasā€¦
