those eyes
i'll never forget
those eyes
i still see them yet

those eyes
shimmering with tears
those eyes
full of terror, fear

those eyes
looking up at me
those eyes
see their agony

those eyes
in that magazine
those eyes
are haunting my dreams

those eyes
making me lose sleep
those eyes
are making me weep

those eyes
of women abused
those eyes
of children...misused

those eyes
of those sick, in pain
those eyes
in my mind, remain

those eyes
looking up at me
those eyes
they won't let me be

those eyes
o! those haunting eyes!

"This life's dim windows of the soul
Distorts the heavens from pole to pole
And leads you to believe a lie
When you see with, not through, the eye."
--WILLIAM BLAKE, 1757-1827.
