Never Love Black Eyes
Avetik Isahakian
Never trust black eyes.
Be wary. Be warned.
Their darkness is a deep,
endless night.
Never love black eyes
where demons can hide.
Just look in I my heart
and see why.
It is a sea of pains
that proves
what turmoil
black eyes can start.
(1897)

Bianca, you've got a very pleasant voice, and it is a nice poem. Here is one of my favourite poems:
The laws of God, the laws of man,
He may keep that will and can;
Not I:let God and man decree
Laws for themselves and not for me;
And if my ways are not as theirs
Let them mind their own affairs.
Their deeds I judge and much condemn,
Yet when did I make laws for them?
Please yourselves, say I, and they
Need only look the other way.
But no, they will not; they must still
Wrest their neighbour to their will,
And make me dance as they desire
With jail and gallows and hell-fire.
And how am I to face the odds
Of man's bedevilment and God's?
I, a stranger and afraid
In a world I never made.
They will be master, right or wrong;
Though both are foolish, both are strong.
And since, my soul, we cannot fly
To Saturn nor to Mercury,
Keep we must, if keep we can,
These foreign laws of God and man.
dear all thank you, you guys inspired me to do this piece, i haven't felt inspired to do anything since a long time....

Leave your sorrow behind the door,
dont try to get there anymore.
You have already suffered too much,
just dont try to be with your past in a touch.
Be happy you found your inner peace,
be happy these old days you will never miss!
New day, new hope, new start,
new chance, new people, new heart.
Live your life, enjoy your every day,
don´t survive, just find the best way.
Open your eyes and give yourself a smile,
keep it as a memory, at least for a while...
It's amazing, Bianca, so is your voice. Love it!!
