عيونك

a simple word
in many songs
i've heard it often
    maybe i've even
    heard you sing it
this word in every 
other song maqamed 
in my head

knowing it was 
meaningful in
some hopelessly
love lorn way
    yet... 
never bothering
to ask or try 
to learn

i have seen the word
set in your face 
steely icy hazel bluish
tear dropped almond
flecked kaleidoscopic
with bits of brown
teal and ebony
all set in the wonder
of divine geometry
