From the sea of his eyes
To a razor jawline
Tears trickle down
Like rain
A shaky sigh
Escapes his lips
His shoulders
Leaden with painLeaden with a dreaded past
Lurking behind
And a dreary present
Piercing his sidesSo from the sea of his eyes
To a razor jawline
Tears trickle down
Like rainHis crystallized eyes
Gaze out
The glaring window paneWhile an unknown future
Lies ahead
