Mysteries
Your eyes are widely opened flowers.
Your eyes are widely opened flowers.
Only their centers are darkly clenched
To conceal mysteries
That lure me to a keener blooming
Than I know,
And promise a secret
I must have.

This has been my favorite poem since early high school, when I found it in a book at the library by my grandma's house. All this time, I wrongly thought it was written by Erica Jong, until I bothered to look it up again.”
