This is the title for a poem I just posted, I'd love some feedback. You can find it in my profile

They say the eyes are the gateway to the soul,

If that's true then her eyes are the deepest river I’ve ever dared look into.

So deep and so full of color you can’t help but dive in,

Then she looks away, pulling you from the depths and leaving you wanting more.

I wish my eyes were deep enough to keep her there,

Just for one more moment, for just one more swim.

They invite me in, just the surface begging to be explored, the depths all the more.

No matter how little light reaches the bottom of that river,

I’d let myself sink just to see that beauty,

Those colors, to feel that water around me.

Yet it is pulled away the moment she blinks

And I find myself looking forward to that next shared gaze.

It is as though I am being tricked into depths I will both never escape,

Never get to fully explore, yet I would smile as the water fills my lungs,

As the light fades I would still only see the beautiful light cascading through the surface,

I would sink into those endless depths and rest happy knowing I got to swim in her River Eyes.
