Through the Eyes is the Truth to All.

A humans eyes are their greatest virtue.
It tells wether a persons intentions are good or bad.
How they may be feeling, if they're broken inside.
They tell a story that cannot be heard through ones mouth and no matter how hard you try to hide, the eyes can reveal the lies that are told and the truth that has yet to leave ones tongue.

So open your eyes and show me your tale.
I promise not to giggle, cringe or wail.
Reveal to me your secrets you safely keep.
I swear I won't tell. I shall not speak.
Show me every nook, cranny and corner,
Of your soul that may still house mourners
Chin up kid I am here to stay.
The sun will soon come out and play
The birds will fly and the wind will howl,
Into the night to accompany the owl
Since you've shown me yours, ill show you mine
The story of me, rather dark than divine.
Here are my eyes, the window to my soul.
Promise me you won't end up behind the trigger of a pistol.
Keep me safe and ill do you the same.
For we have beard the heat of the flame.
Now listen up kid, it's time for goodbyes
Never forget the truth of the eyes.

Wow, very powerful and poignant piece. The eyes are truly the window to the soul, and you've captured that concept brilliantly. I love the second line after the break, but I think you mean "wail," not "whale." Great piece!
