He Had Such
Quiet Eyes
He had such quite eyes.
He had such quiet eyes
She did not realize
They were two pools of lies
Layered with thinnest ice
To her, those quiet eyes
Were breathing desolate sighs
Imploring her to be nice
And to render him paradise
If only she’d been wise
And had listened to the advice
Never to compromise
With pleasure-seeking guys
She would be free from ‘the hows and whys’
Now here’s a bit of advice
Be sure that nice really means nice
Then you’ll never be losing at dice
Though you may lose your heart once or
twice

He had such quiet
eyes
She did not realize
They were two pools
of lies
Layered with thinnest
ice
To her, those quiet
eyes
Were breathing
desolate sighs
Imploring her to be
nice
And to render him
paradise
If only she’d been
wise
And had listened to
the advice
Never to compromise
With pleasure-
seeking guys
She’d be free from
“the hows and whys”
Now here’s a bit of
advice
Be sure that nice
really means nice
Then you’ll never be
losing at dice
Though you may

The poem “He Had
Such Quiet Eyes”
looks into the
dilemma faced by a
woman who
unsuspectingly gave
herself to the lustful
desires of a man.
Due to her ignorance
and refusal to listen
to good advice, she
fell prey to a pleasure
seeking guy, who
lured her with his
quiet yet deceitful
eyes. In the end she
realized how wrong
she was to trust him
and wished she had
listened to the advice
given but it was
already too late to
mend what was
broken.
A young woman fell in love with a
deceitful guy. She was mesmerised by
his ‘quiet eyes’. The woman did not
realise his insincerity and deception. In
fact, she felt sorry for him.
