Write a poem focusing on eyes.

Eyes Carry Guilt

Your perfectly fine

…except you are not

Your eyes hold big lies

Scared you will get caught


They look pink and puffy

Red overlaps brown

Have you been crying

With your hidden frown


I know you have secrets

That I have too

But is your secret that bad

Do I really know you?


Your eyes carry guilt

Heavy with shame

Did you mess things up

Or is someone else to blame


Your eyes reveal all

the pain you undergo

What is your secret

Do I really want to know…
