The pain comes from the heart
But bleeds from the eyes
The suffering never ends
Until the fear dies
Watching closely
And never letting go
Burning eyes incinerate the foe…
So many words said
But no action taking place
Are we all just scared?
Trapped in a glass case
Falling deep within
Drowning in our own gore
The eyes are still following us
Just as they were before
If we could all receive forgiveness
Without saying a word
Life would be so much easier
We would never be cut from the cord
Hiding in what we are given
Taking advantage of the willing
We’ll never get anywhere
When we bleed for their killings
Our blood is warmed
By the pressure that is dear
This paradox is condemning
As our eyes are our fears
They are always there
Watching every move
Silently critiquing
Making it harder to chew
The blood that is spilled
Emerging from each pupil
Slowly turns to tears
When see our selves
For our faces are mirrors
The eyes hold secretes
Never to be found
And when they are
Only the truth is bound
We blink so often
Only to keep concealed
Our obscenities
That we have filled
Within ourselves
We are breaking down
One flash at a time
From blue, to green, to brown
All the eyes are different
No matter how much they’re the same
The problems that are masked
Is what collect the fame
