The glittering blue waters, once reflected in my eye
And the light within the pupils, were like stars within the sky
Everything they looked upon, a mystery to unfold
And even in the simple things, there were wonders to behold
Days rolled into weeks, and weeks spilled into years
The gateway to my soul, is now obstructed by my tears
The innocent girl was gone now, stolen from her youth
When her mind convinced her otherwise, the mirror told the truth
Perhaps it took my own pain, to see the hurt in others
Hours upon hours, of being broken beneath the covers
But now I see the realm, that lies within the eyes
And all the pain and suffering, a mere smile can’t disguise
It’s not so hard to brush it off, and follow some pre planned script
People don’t question words, forced through trembling lips
But the eyes they have a story, and try with all your might
But the chapters that are imprinted, there are ones you can’t rewrite
Now I’m cold and barren, left scarred by thoughts that stay
Memories of the past, that refuse to go away
But occasionally I’ll catch a glimpse, of that pure and carefree me
Occasionally I can see the stars, and reflection of the sea
