Eye Contact I Can Not Do

Look in Someones Eyes See Everything They Been Through

By Honesty AmaniPublished 7 years ago 1 min read
do u see her history through her eyes 

eye contact i can not do

lost in people eyes

see the rainy days they thread through

bullshit and pain in the pupils it's insane

the betrayal one held up on all in their strains

blood shot red maybe they seen somebody dead

the eyes show struggle of the past

it'll forever last in what they do

that's what made them who

sad eyes never lie

weary eyes never sleep

happy eyes that's rare

agony & tears i see

running from eye contact

wondering if they see me too

eye contact i can not do

can they see how hard i been working or the pain that put me to do

can they see my visions and dreams or what made me get this view

dangerous eyes , killer eyes

that's what i got all because what i been through

don't stare at the way my eye lids close

i could of just shot you

the vain's in my eyes is the only thing that saved you

that's my mom smiling telling me things i should and shouldn't do

can they see my pain like i see there's too

eye contact i can not do
