The Boy With Multi-Colored Eyes

The boy was born in winter months

With multi-colored eyes

These eyes could see the future

And never told him lies

​

​

​

The boy was his family’s treasure

His prophesy, so bold

Many paid for insight

And his eyes were purple and gold

​

​

​

He saw his family’s destiny

All the good and bad

His family wanted knowledge

So, he started with his dad

​

​

​

His dad would have great fortune

Mother had nothing to dread

Brother would find a wife

But sister would end up dead

​

​

​

Sadness the family felt

His sister’s terror foretold

To be killed by her brother

Whose eyes were purple and gold

​

​

​

The boy was filled with grief

Knowing his eyes to be true

He climbed upon the rooftop

And from the top he flew

​

​

​

A sacrifice he made

Under the stars that glister

But the sacrifice was made in vain

As he fell onto his sister

​

​

​

This happened years ago

But the story is still told

About the boy and his prophecies

Whose eyes were purple and gold
