The pain in my eyes.

by Artistic Fallen Angel   Aug 16, 2007


I walk these school hallways,
with not a care in the world so you think...

During the day you see me, with a smile on my face,
but what people don't see is the pain in my eyes.

The pain in my eyes, is hidden well now.
I used to be a girl that cried on the outside, but now I have ran out of tears to cry.

Screaming, bleeding on the inside,
praying with every chance i get to.

Faking a smile everyday, pretending and living.
I can't look in the mirror anymore without my eyes changing to green and begin to cry.

So happy in the past, crying in the present, but lying to everybody.
Now when you see me I'm happy, but really screaming on the inside.

My eyes are dark brown, you never see anything wrong when my eyes change to green, I am myself, the me that I hide to protect myself and others.

Anger or sadness it doesn't matter my eyes change.
The pain in my eyes has grown to the final extent.

When you see the pain in my eyes... run.
I can keep it under control, but not much more.

The last strand of control is slipping if it gets loose I may not be able to restrain the thing that the pain has created.
