Change Your Eyes
your eyes.
how do they see me?
not as a select few see me.
the eyes you see me with.
hostility in those eyes.
hostility.
anger.
grudgeful eyes.
i hear the grudge.
the grudge in your words.
why cant you see me?
see me with their eyes?
see me with love.
with happiness.
with support.
i see none of that.
none of that in your eyes.
i beg you.
see me with different eyes.
eyes like those.
those select few see me.
my final plee.
i beg you.
change your eyes.
