Eyes are often a reflection of our soul

Witness of an unspoken tale

Deeply rooted in our conscience

Where not many have access

---

As they faithfully and loyally guard our secrets

Through the good and trying times

Controlling the flood of emotions waiting to trickle down

Hoping to decrease the mounting anguish

---

Just to let it all go

Being more vulnerable than ever

Eyes have become crystal clear

Revealing the various emotions: pain, resentment and anger

---

Nowhere to hide or disappear

Now, everyone can see past the facade

Feeling as if I were being stripped naked

And shamed by the increasing number of glares
