Sadness in eyes threatening to smile no more
Eyes that once danced to life’s song
Hurt that goes unnoticed far too often
A hurt that does not break but builds
Builds walls ones of security in seclusion
If you search, love is to be found here
Love that once given is strong and loyal
I looked again and saw as such
Eyes screaming for approval in anyway
They have an aura of worthlessness
These are eyes of one made to feel unworthy
I think I have found all that I can here
Yet as I gaze deep into this shattered soul
This is what I found. Anger.
Anger at all these things
Hate towards all who caused this
But above all a blazing anger
One towards a mere existence
All this I saw in the face of a girl
Only to realize it was my own reflection
Eyes that once danced to life’s song
