"eyes are the windows to the soul"
or so i've been told
for some reason you enjoy
staring into my eyes
and i always look away
because if eyes really are the windows to the soul
im terrified you'll discover
that my soul is full of pain and sorrow
my windows are shattered
and the glass shards might cut you badly
so i'd rather keep you wishing
than let you down
because when you stare into my eyes
you wont see vast blue skies
through unclouded glass
you'll see a thunderstorm
through a shattered window pane
