Hollow EyesA Poem by Rowena SladeThey say that, If you look into someone's' eyes You can see their souls. But if you look into mine, They're hollow, Empty. I've seen too much for someone so young. It's turned me hard and cold Don't judge me If I'm not always smiling. Don't judge me If my face is always serious. My heart has turned to steal. The things that should effect me, No longer do. If you judge me, Judge me by who I once was. Not by who I have become. Who I am now Is just a shield. It hides the weak Vulnerable me. Please, Get to know me Before you pass judgment. Because who you see now Isn't who I really am. I'm hiding Behind my cold Hard Hallow eyes. © 2014 Rowena Slade |
