The Eyes and the Heart

by | Mar 31, 2022 | Poems

The eyes wander
But the heart stays
The eyes are like children
Running this way and that
But the heart is like a wise old man
Who always knows exactly where he belongs
And is never in a hurry
The eyes are easily distracted
But the heart remains undisturbed
The eyes are always changing their mind
But the heart remains true
The eyes seek gratification everywhere
But the heart brings them home
The eyes want it all
But the heart only wants what it needs
The eyes wonder what it’s like on the other side
But the heart is happy where it is
The eyes are restless
But the heart is content
The eyes are like children
But the heart is wise
The Eyes and the Heart
