Eyes that open

            See

            Wonder

            Eyes that are searching

Eyes that question

            Plead

            Demand

            Eyes that are misunderstood

Eyes that spark

            Flash

            Burn

            Eyes that are jaded

Eyes that pry

            Scold

            Accuse

            Eyes that are troubled

Eyes that speak

            Curse

            Lie

            Eyes that are lost

Eyes that long

            Hope

            Hurt

            Eyes that are ignored

Eyes that fear

            Hide

            Pray

            Eyes that are forgotten

Eyes that remember

            Cry

            Dim

            Eyes that are closed

For Love

He killed himself

Slowly

Little by little

He couldn’t help himself

He couldn’t stop

He was who he was

It couldn’t be any other way

He took his own life

One day at a time

Till there was nothing left

It was suicide

Cause of death: A self-inflicted broken heart
