Your Dark Eyes Match Your Soul (Double Triolet)

by Jenni Marie   Jul 11, 2007


Swept me so effortlessly into your grip
Fascinated by your pitch black eyes
Suggestively rubbing against my hips
Swept me so effortlessly into your grip
Didn't know you were as cruel as a whip
Finding out the real you such a surprise
Swept me so effortlessly into your grip
Fascinated by your pitch black eyes

Soul as cold as ice, eyes like the darkest night sky
Now I know your eyes match your murderous soul
Smiling when you hear the saddest of cries
Soul as cold as ice, eyes like the darkest night sky
Excitement rising when you feel someone die
Often your anger spins completely out of control
Soul as cold as ice, eyes like the darkest night sky
Now I know your eyes match your murderous soul

*Interpretate how you will.

Triolet-Consists of 8 lines.
The 1st, 4th and 7th line repeat.
The 2nd and 8th line repeat as well.

    To me with sounds almost like an abusive relationship. Where things start out great in the beginning but then quickly change.I think that my favourite line had to be the last one because I took it to mean that the person in this poem finally realised what they were getting into and left before it got to bad. Sort of like a happy ending, you could say. Such an interesting style that you picked and while most of the times repeating lines drive me crazy you picked the perfect lines to enhance. I feel that when the lines are spoken the second time and the third time you don't feel bored cause you've read them all you feel embraced because it gives the poem more structure and shows the true ability of the author. Thanks for sharing this with us, you did a fantastic job.

    I know you said interpret this as you want. I dont know whether you want to know how we interpret it. I think of it as a rape. Which other people probably do also. It was a fancinating poem with no real answer or even question quite mysterious actually i liked it. xxx alex xxx
