Eyes (revision)

Can you see through these smiling eyes:
see through fake passion: through my lies?
can you look deep into my eyes,
and see my ties?
my pain?
my cries?

No, you cannot see…
for my lie is right,
it is to keep you smiling bright.

As for me…
I have seen smite
And for now
I’m awaiting my fading light.

I stand here waiting as darkness falls,
I look around to see who calls;
I wait and wait but what befalls
Im left alone my eyes and all

Darkness has fallen;
I’ve become blind
So now...
I no longer need these eyes of mine.

  • I agree, this happens to be one of my favorites too. Please don't ever silence this gift you have.

  • This one is my favourite of your poems. I love the end. Masking who we are to satisfy the public is a very tiresome chore, but one we do all too often.
