Dark Eyes
The windows to the soul are dark I see
They’re tinted with the night of hope that’s lost
And shattered, clinging piece to shattered piece
While trying to hide the convoluted mess
To trust might break the glass you’re holding up
You say it’s not a chance you want to take
World shattered once, you fear it will not stop
But ‘seems at times to build one first must break
You stare at me, I long to see inside
The portals boarded up, so hard to read
I want to ease the pain you try to hide
To help you feel the peace you really need
Let go’ the shattered panes of pain and fear
And fit the frame with hope that’s firm and clear
