Violent Eyes

Violent days have violent ends.

By Ellie KleinatlandPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

Violent days have violent ends,

and violent enemies,

have violent friends.

Violent friends

have violent ties,

and after that,

they have violent eyes.

Violent eyes

leave violent scars,

violent scars

leave violent hearts.

Violent hearts

bleed hurt and pain.

Hurt and pain

bring us back again.

Violent days have violent ends.

Look at that,

you have no friends.

Everyone hates you,

the sky's 'bout to fall.

Watch them walk by,

seeing each flaw.

They turn and look at you,

with their violent eyes,

seeing the reflections

of violent cries.

Wishing to run,

wishing to flee,

their souls keep inside

what they cannot be.
