The eyes…
They look,
They see,
They judge.I see them all,
He does it,
She does it,
They do it,
Even I.What do they see?
What do I see when my eyes rest upon them?Am I in the wrong?
Am I bad?
Am I too good it’s fake?Why must we judge?
We are all one and the same,
With the same things,
Made the same way:
Either by the Creator or Creation.The eyes,
They see,
They see too much.The souls,
They judge,
Why must they judge?The eyes,
They look at us,
They look at things,
They make us judge,
Whilst they judge as well.I wonder,
Oh how I wonder,
Why?Why must we judge?
When we see the hate in their eyes,
The disgust, the scorn, the love, the fear,
When we know our eyes hold much the same.What has it all come to,
When it’s now Man against Technology, Man against Society?
What shall we do when it’s Man versus Man, or Self versus Self?
What can we do?How has it come to this?
The eyes, the eyes and the soul,
They know.
They must,
For they started it all.Why must we judge?
Why must we look upon Man,
And see nothing but contempt?Why can we not love all?
Why must we hurt,
Hurt others, hurt ourselves.Why must we judge?
The eyes,
The eyes,
They see it all,
They know it all.
Or so they think?What if it’s wrong?
What if it’s right?
What if it’s wrong and yet it feels ever so right?What must we think?
What can we think,
When it’s not our choice or time to speak.How can we have a right to find fault in others and judge,
When we find fault in ourselves?
No one is perfect,
Why must we act as if we were?Why must we fight amongst ourselves?
It’s because of the eyes and what they see.The eyes,
They see,
They see it all,
Or so they think.When families have been reduced to going against each other,
To fighting amongst one another,
What must we do,
What can we do,
When blood is no longer thicker than water?The eyes…
They look,
They see,
They judge.The eyes,
They see,
They see too much.The souls,
They judge,
Why must they judge?Why must we judge?
