Eyes To the Soul
Eyes to the soul, eyes to my heart, filled with grace,
I see your glaze upon my face,
My face is filled with the warmth of shame,
My body is chilled with unknown guilt,
I don't look up, for fear of your gift of kindness,
I want to let go of my comfort zone, so much to say,
Yet my mouth remains calm, quiet,
I hide my hurt deep down inside,
Who will ask me to look up at them?
I feel your gift of care, kindness, empthany,
Will you reach out to lift my chin, and see inside my soul?....
