What Color?

What color are those eyes,

So blue, so green?

What lies behind, beneath, unseen?

Is it only cones, rods, neurons, all that science entails,

Or is there something more?

Can you really fall in love with someone

For only their eyes?

Can you find their soul

Through their eyes?

Stunning saphires, engaging emeralds

Even the heartbreaking hazels

Seem to seduce me.

What color are those eyes?

I cannot tell,

Because each time I look into them

I become lost

A traveller in a foreign land

Lost in his mind, his soul

I become lost in those eyes

What color are those eyes?
