	Wide Eyes Wide eyes searching Looking at me, through me Unlike an ordinary child of so few years Overpowerig intensity That makes me drop my gaze The ancient eyes see me Looking further into me than I would like Discerning a truth that exposes me A sallow complexion emphasizes the immensity of the eyes A trembling shell of a what a child should be Though only six or seven years old The pupils have captured a lifetime of misery Windows into a soul that has experienced the cruelty of humanity Time has worn the innocence of childhood far too thin The incorrigible destruction destroys me
