Anime eyes
English nearly 200.000 words
and yet I still can’t truly express
All the thoughts and feeling in my head
So I choose art to show what's inside
Brush the paint smooth for skin
“she is soft and fragile”
The eyes say
“I am innocent”
simple black school shoes
“she should be elsewhere”
The eyes say
“Why am I here”
Choose a plain white dress
“her life has little fun”
The eyes say
“play with me”
Neat hair, styled and clean
“She is well kept”
The eyes say
“I know love”
Some shading on walls meeting in a corner
“That’s as far as she can go”
The eyes say
“Please don’t see me”
Curl her in a ball
“Please leave her”
The eyes say
“Please leave me”
What I can't say with words
I hope my eyes might show.
