EmpressOfDarkness's blog: "My Eyes"

My Eyes

If I lift my eyes from the ground

Opening myself up

Afraid of what could happen

If I raise them into yours

Would let you inside of me

My hopes and fears

They are ones I can never show

For if I let anyone inside

Would they ever truly want to know?

Just what it is that makes me sad

Of how I long to cry

Of how much pain they have caused me

Would they even wonder why?

So I go along the sidewalk

With my eyes cast down below

I pray they never stop me

I pray they never know©
