Evil Eyes
August 17, 2021
eyes so brown
meant to make me feel safe
yet a brown so dark
it makes my heart chafe
my lungs tighten
as i feel myself start to drown
losing hold of reality
my thoughts spin round and round
you watch as i lie there
face contorted in pain
you smile and i shiver
not an ounce of love will remain
and so im back here
looking into those dark eyes
but no longer am i drawn
to the pain they still disguise
your evil eyes...
