I have eyes
Supposedly windows to the soul
I wonder what could be seen through mine
For they change constantly
Blue in the morning
A green star in the middle
A black hole pulling everything in
The sky
The grass
The flowers
The spiders
The shadows
The people
Green they’ll turn
Every evening
Supposedly
What does it mean
Will I be ever changing
Ever turning
Different
I like it
Odd
I love it
Different
There’s me
A mysterious girl
Ever changing
Ever turning
Ever not the same
So when you meet me
When you know me
Don’t be so sure…

I love the way you constructed this poem, though I'd work a bit on the begining where the ideas aren't very clear

I love this! Very well done. however, some of your word choices are a bit iffy, I think you could find better ways to say some of the things you've said.  Once again, I love this, it's beautiful, and in a way, quite eloquent :)
