[Soaring Feather]

Haunted eyes are broken windows with tattered curtains of the soul blowing in the wispy breezes of the fires of eternity...

Reaction to the poem Dark???

This could be material for a poem...

Partly both.
It could also be a one line stand alone.

And, also, a small bit of inspiration from your quote and a bit of a drawing I did (self-portrait of just my eyes) for a sign.
Sign says "Haunted Eye Studios" with a set of eyes, mine, appearing between the first two words and the last one.
