The eyes and soul never lie

When i look into another's eyes I can see their soul All their worries All their troubles And all their pain Even all their scars It's a story that hasn't been shown or told truthfully We can't hide from others seeing it So we just hide our eyes And not make eye contact But what good does it do When someone can see through it all No matter how hard you try to hide Should you look back at them Or should you subside your true self from them As they continue to look at you Your mind goes into a vast pool of inquiry As you ponder yourself With the thought of them staying or leaving once you look back and show vulnerability As you continue to scurry away the closer they become With each step you take they're right there too inching closer than ever before They know how you feel They know how you move They know how you cope They see what you want and need With every blink they understand your true desires With every breath they hear you speak For that the eyes and soul never lie
