Behind brown eyes

by @scooter88

Behind brown eyes, I realize the difference between me and you. Views askew I see in darker shades than you. I see the malice and the hate, when love can't compensate. The anger and the rudeness to strangers. I hate less and less and must confess, we should love more and drop this hateful mess. Shake hands and look up. As tears drop my jaw juts. Behind brown eyes I am alone in my head. I am alone in the cognitive recognition I have zero friends. Its behind brown eyes that wears a fake smile, all the while, the heart is degrading inside. Laughing and jesting. Smiling and suggesting to be happy. Being sappy with no shoulder to cry on. Constantly running in place. Not caring about saving face. Behind brown eyes hides a heart, that bleeds for everyone. Behind brown eyes, a man slowly dies. Behind brown eyes.
