glossy eyes
unheard cries '
dark clouds filled her sky
but no one knew why
a burden on her heart thats wasnt even hers
she just made sure no one else got hurt
tears fill her eyes as they feel her face
they flow heavily as if they were being chased
stuck in a sidereal trying to feel for others
like a scared child at night under the covers
at night she drowns in her tears
nothing has changed its been going on for years
chills run down her face as the night gets old
wishing her heart could be warm and no longer cold
she speaks clearly but she may not speak loud
even if that means only one person hears her out of the crowd
why cant people feel for her like she feels for them
everytime the light gets bright there's always a dim
but now her tears speak for her
and still no one hears her.
