Behind Your Eyes

by Rob Maxey

Behind your eyes, is where you hide so others will not see

Who you are and what you are and who you truly be

Behind your eyes a smile that shines upon your given face

Obscuring an unfocused stare a very darkened place

You say you love, you say you care but that is just a veil

The eyes a path to a soul that finds comfort in hell

You pass others on the street and nod at one or two

But only those who really look will see the hidden you

As you use the looking glass to dwell on who you are

The reflection that comes back is coming from afar

And in this darkest black you hide, so none will ever see

That you are hiding from yourself not hiding just from me
