Eyes

So I was looking through my stacks of writings and I found this one. It's not too old maybe... 6 to 8 months ish. It is kind of dark to some. Deffinatly not happy unless you like cheese. Any way here it is don't forget to post your thoughts (it isn't edited so may be some mistakes (but when are any of my posts edited ?)) enjoy

How much can be told about a man by his eyes? Some say very little, others say everything. I believe, no, I Know for a fact you can learn everything.
I knew a man once and his eyes revealed everything. It may sound fictionous but I tell you it wasn't. Now let me tell you about.
He was a soldier and warrior. His eyes said he had seen death and not just plain death, death brought about by himself. Death that he personaly carried out. With either a pull of a trigger, a short command, or even a swift jerk of a blade. His eyes with solemn and smooth, sunken deap within their sockets. Not only had he seen and carried out death but he had come to accept it. He had found the self justice of the situation and kept it. He was not happy with what he had done but he accepted it. His eyes not only smooth but also hard. It showed that he had killed before and would not hesitate to do it again if came the option. He would fight and kill all the harder if there was loved ones to save but now that was getting harder. He had lost everyone and all. His eyes showed a sleeplessness that came with several nights staying up and regretting the past. A look that described feeling like child when you should of been an adult and having to pay the consequences.
Even with all the death and killing in his eyes there was a softness like none other. A Softness that only came from a love like no other. One look could tell you he cared. He had a wife, oh how he adored her. He labored for her. Spent his whole life for her and then what? Only to hav her snatched away from him forever.
Revenge would glow from his eyes. Revenge sparked his brown eyes and gave them fire. The one who took his reson to live away would suffer. Now he lived for that reason only. No remorse and no regret. No pain and no emotion. His eyes may show emotion but his heart has been turned cold. Now he needs no self justice to make right the people he killed. He did not cared about anyone. All he cared for had already left this earth. Let the world burn! Forget the way of justice taught to him in the wars. Let nothing but hatred rule him. Now he now hunts and soon he shall find his prey. God help them.

Wow...interesting. And don't worry about being dark...I get very dark in my poetry sometimes. I like it, though. Keep up the writing!

It has to be dark...because well, its an honesty all of its own.
