Unseeing Eyes
As she drags a razor against her wrist,
he lays in bed wondering if she'll stop herself in time.
A soft sob escapes his lips
Outside the door his mother flinches, knowing how much he's hurting
The girl, across town, raises her head to catch her reflection.
Eyes once so beautiful see nothing,
not the blood
not the pain she causes
not the girl her boyfriend loves
Across town, he raises a gun to his head and looks himself in the mirror
eyes once so handsome see nothing.
not the boy his girlfriend loves
not he the pain he will soon cause
not the blood about to be spilt.
As she stands over his cold body,
with his unseeing eyes
she thinks to herself
why didn't he stop himself in time?!
A soft sob escapes her lips
At her side, her father flinches, knowing how much she's hurting
With unseeing eyes
She looks at the boy she loved and pulls a knife from her pocket
and makes one final cut
