Gaze Into My Eyes
Gaze into my eyes,
Find yourself.
What do you see?
Please tell me,
Tell me please.
You will see me,
And what you have done to me.
In the isolated darkness,
Knocked down
Again and again,
I wither,
Wilt
And fade
Hauling the boulders
That you embedded within me.
Gaze into my eyes,
Find yourself.
What do you see?
Please tell me,
Tell me please.
You will see me,
And what you have done to me.
In the isolated darkness,
Knocked down
Again and again,
Like a dying rose,
I wither,
Wilt,
And fade
Hauling the torture
That you gave.
Your discrimination,
Your criticism,
Your misjudgments,
Your labels,
Your disgust,
Your disapproval,
Your inequality,
Your name calling,
Your jealousy,
The isolation,
The darkness,
Then…
DEATH.
This isn’t me.
This is what your poisoned words,
Actions and judgments,
Cause me to be.
You cause me to be weeded
Beaten up,
Torn apart,
Eroded,
And tossed away.
You cause me to become
Suicidal
And extinct.
You’ve embedded all these boulders,
Within me.
All of this,
For being different.
To make this a healthier,
Happier place to live,
Gaze into my eyes,
If you are willing
You shall discover me.
What will you see?
You will see a new life,
That blossoms alive.
That thrives
And flourishes.
You will see,
Appreciation,
Acceptance,
Love,
Kindness,
And compassion,
You will see a
Blossoming,
Bold,
Red,
Rose.
Gaze into my eyes,
Find yourself.
You will see Me,
And what you have done to me.
Gaze into my eyes,
Disclose Me,
And what I am truly supposed to be.
What will you discover?
A long lost companion,
A buddy,
A pal,
A Friend,
Who accepts you as YOURSELF,
And NOT SOMEONE ELSE.
I gaze intensely into your eyes,
And find You.
Why won’t you find Me
In My eyes,
Instead of you in mine?
Gaze into my eyes,
Find yourself.
What do you see?
Please tell me,
Tell me please.
Gaze into my eyes,
If you are willing
You shall discover me
