Can you see my eyes?
And the good they see in you
The Beauty they find in the world
The judgements they try to reject

Can you see my eyes?
As they look into yours
And wonder what you see
The speckled brown like coffee

Can you see my eyes?
Constantly steady and unwavering
Looking for love in yours
So dependent on your approval

Can you see my eyes?
So lost and confused
Darting back and forth
In a dimly lit room

Can you see my eyes?
Leaking because there old
Withered lines drawn around
They make snow in the cold

Can you see my eyes?
With both of yours closed
Your sisters all in black
Consoling my broken soul
