Mine Eyes

Mine eyes By Sharon Moemise My eyes tell the story of my life A story so sad, it cuts like a knife Through life's selfish acceptance Of pain, hurt and deadly endurance I look at the one who looks back I see nothing, a dark future so black I search my inner sanctum, looking out there Hoping, wishing for anything, anywhere My eyes tell a story so clear Of an era, a life filled with fear You speak with your voice, and I with my eyes Herein is where the real truth lies My eyes...the windows to my soul Which is nothing but a dark hole With an entrance and exit to nothingness To a life filled with loneliness
