Painful Eyes

Abject truth Heartfelt feelings Not fully hidden Painful eyes Glancing away quickly For fear others will see Imagining compassion Not always there Painful eyes Damage from years back Not realizing We all are damaged Every one of us

Short drama as it is. I love it. Thousand rays of love.

I was thinking "wait" Doesn't this expose me? And then the rest of myself said, "But doesn't it free others?" So away I went.
