Philosophy of the Eyes


The eyes are the windows to the soul, said the wise man.
I agreed.
Then, empty eyes lead to an empty soul, my heart whispered.
That's why I often shut my eyes.
That sorrow cannot radiate without my approval.
It is a sin in my world to let those people see this dry, barren, uninteresting, broken, and decayed spirit.
That's why I turn my face away.
These eyes cannot see those strange eyes.
They know nothing, but their own judgement.
I shut it for too long, I always fall.
I think that I am healed, but I am only getting worse.
I think that I am saved, but I am only getting lost.
