Look into my eyes,
Peer into the soul.
You will see-
Calm, peace
Turbulence.
Reflections of beauty,
Life,
Freedom.
I flow through you,
In you,
With you.
I'm every road you've ever traveled,
Every place you'll ever be.
A cold breeze on your sweaty face,
A hot fire for your frozen toes.
I'm the contradiction that reveals the Truth,
The exception that proves the rule.
I do not need to tell you this;
Just look into my eyes.

The word "turbulence" surprised me. But it was in a good way. There are so many poems that you start reading and think you have them figured out...and most of the time you do. It is nice to be wrong every once in a while. "a contradiction" indeed.
Good job.
Write on, poet.
