Hidden Behind These Blue Eyes
People are always quick to judge
how you act and what you do.
But they never bother to understand
why you act that way.
Hidden behind these blue eyes
there is a story to tell.
About why I keep to myself
and never put myself out there.
Hidden behind these blue eyes
there's a reason why
I think the way I do today
because of what happened
yesterday.
Hidden behind these blue eyes
there are things that
have happened that are too
terrible to write about.
About how my aunts died
of cancer.
About the time I last saw them
before they died.
About why I gave up on love.
And eventually, on myself.
Hidden behind these blue eyes
there is anger
and doubt
and love
and loss
and hate
and smiles
and tears
and happiness
and successes
and failures.
Hidden behind these blue eyes
there is a story
that ends with a
happy ending.
