Eyes are mirrors to the soul
You can pretend
But your eyes will reflect what you really are
Though you try to hide inside yourself
You can still see
What you are on the outside
You close your eyes
They are stone
Refusing any help
Any comfort
You can no longer see
You are cold
You are gray
Just like mirrors shatter
Your soul is split
One hundred million pieces
Strewn across the corners of your mind
Never to be mended
Again.
Your emptiness consumes you
A black hole where your heart once beat
Sucking in all feeling
Crushing it to tiny pieces
Like your soul
But the pieces are there
Though you refuse to gather them
They gather dust waiting
Waiting for you to acknowledge them
They are there
But you can’t see them
Because your eyes are shut
You are blind
The world is black
An ashen gray your eyes have turned
The color of dust
Gathering
Gathering in the corners of your mind.
But your heart still has one emotion
Longing
Longing for a reason to beat
To live again
And so you open your eyes
The brightness blinding
The brightness binding
You don’t shield your eyes
You let it nourish your soul
Growing again
Into a flower
Winding around your heart
Consuming you.
Your eyes are green
The color of life
A reason to live again
A reason to beat
You open your eyes
You open your soul
To a world new to you
And completely the same
As before your seclusion
You take in feelings
You take in love
As strong as a tidal wave
Washing over your body
Cleansing your soul.
Your eyes are blue
You are sad
But you remember when you were happy
For without happiness there could be no sadness
And so you have learned to heal
You have learned to be thankful
For the world’s sadness
And hope.
Now your soul is a rainbow
A field of mixed emotions
In Technicolor
You no longer see in black and white
Though it is more painful now
You know what you must do
And saying goodbye
Is the hardest part
A wave of emotion washes over you
Hitting you with the scent of color
I love you.

- Thank you for that, but I can't really take it seriously since you wrote it out of boredom.
