Dead Eyes

Dead eyes move in slow motion

Dead eyes see so much pain

Dead eyes look into the past

With the lenses of retrospect, dead eyes see everything more clearly

Dead eyes stare off, stilled by hurt and sadness

Lashes cradle tears that roll from the corners of dead eyes

Dead eyes don't blink

Dead eyes reflect broken spirits

Dead eyes that once shined so bright

Dead eyes that were once filled with much life

Dead eyes that lost lost hope
