Escapism

Eyes are windows to the soul,
Concealing pain and misery's dark role.
Behind each gaze, a story untold,
A turmoil brewing, young and old.

The soul yearns to break free from chains,
Escape the bondage of earthly pains.
But how can I flee, when earthbound I remain?
From dust I came, to dust I'll return again.
