A drabble is a short work of fiction of precisely one hundred words in length. It is a tricky piece of work but a fun challenge! Write a drabble that revolves around eyes or even better eye colour! A musky brown that reminds you of a beach or the cold, grey eyes which are emotionless? Anything is welcomed here! Just remember that it should be of 100 words; 90 at the minimum. Maximum is a 100.

Eyes

The knock startled me from my solitary supper. I rose and peered outside. On my doorstep stood a slight woman with a cloak wrapped tightly around her to ward off the rain. Under the shelter of the awning, she pushed back her cowl, allowing me to see her eyes. They were a rich mahogany, eyes which had seen and survived a century's worth of hurt, eyes which drew you in, not solely because of their beauty, but also because of the depth of knowledge within.

I quarreled with myself, desperately wanting both to show her in and leave her out.
