His Eyes

See what resides in the eyes and the tears of a struggling man
devastation and confusion from a man who don't think he can
do anything in life because he tries but he always fails
so he spends up most his life in the prisons or in the jails
with a disconnected feeling from people and from himself
paranoia and suspicions so gracefully he move with stealth
portraying love and joy but he dreads to have his dreams 
because it feels like he is drowning in life like it's a stream
excruciating pains cause this man to have much stress
trying desperately to function and keep it up off his chest
maintaining for a moment and keeping up his composure
mood unstable deep inside and much deadlier than a soldier
always ready for whatever because his world is problematic
no apologies are excepted from the people who cause this static
contemplating for a second on bringing them their demise
but persistently he's stopped by the people who read his eyes
