Externally different colors.
Blue of many shades,
Brown of many shades,
Green of many shades,
Everything in between.
Protected by the blinking hairs.

Look past the beauty,
see the story line.
Only the oculars hide the truth.
But once cracked walls show,

Who is a spitting image of her.
Seeing the innocent hurt,
with wicked word,

around wrists of those in the Limbo.
Latching on,
bringing them down into the abyss.
All falling near,
losing sight             of the light.

What hides the truth?
Seeing wrongdoing,
Seeing depleted hope—
desensitises.
Who hides it
is silently
