"Death drives tyrants to torture, lovers to cliff's edge, masterpiece to trash. Death paints the final brushstroke."


My eyes are portals

They see the world as my mind tells

With an outer circle of brown and gray

Green emeralds are hidden within

 

My eyes see into different worlds

Room to room, night to day

My emotions ever-changing my view

 

My eyes tell stories

From my youth, for my future

Keeping every teardrop as a memory

 

My eyes are naive

That grow and learn with what they see

Despite their age they see the world

Through worn and tired irises
