The sparkling blue eyes have now turned to grey
Once bright like the ocean, now dull like rain.
Nobody sees sadness hidden within such beautiful eyes
The secrets once held, the spiral of betrayal and lies.
It is said your eyes are the window to your soul
But my soul is not beautiful, it cannot grow
For what my eyes have forgotten, my soul still sees
The pain still lingers, my heart still bleeds.
But now he has gone, must be left in the past
But it now seems my life is moving too fast
I need time out, a moment to reflect
I feel numb, no emotions I am able to detect.
My full life story, nobody will know
Where I have been, no child should go
I'll never understand why I was treated this way
Their eyes were open but they looked away.
