The saying goes

“Eyes are the window to the soul”

So tell me why when I look into yours

I see a field of nothingness

The saying goes

“An eye for an eye”

So tell me why I am left blind

while you’re off seeing other people

The saying goes

“Eyes shout what the lips fear to say”

So tell me why your lips

yell valiantly at me at every opportunity

The saying goes

“Worlds change when eyes meet”

So tell me why my world is stagnant

while yours seems to have just begun

The saying goes

“Beauty’s in the eye of the beholder”

So Tell Me Why

after the turmoil you’ve caused

I can still see the beauty in you
