Sunken Eyes
A dull expression on her face
Sure leaves one wondering
What is within this lacking face
Dark eyes, sunken feeling
Lips seem parched needing some water
Keeps the face desperate
Eyes hollow, staring off beyond
A look that’s desolate
Maybe she’ll snap out of it soon
For her funk is real bad
She has a listless fortitude
She’s awful just a tad
