Melancholy Eyes

Melancholy eyes
Tell an untold story  
Seeing love so differently  
Blurry through tears  
 
A broken beat resides  
Under a bruised rib cage  
Remembrance of judgement  
In every painful breath  
 
Gentleness swept away  
Trust shattered  
Winter blew in  
As cold as that loveless stare  
 
A soul slowly picked at  
Every action questioned  
It was never love  
More control  
 
Damnation of that kiss  
Plauged by its effect  
Haunted by all  
That came flooding after  
 
Beauty decaying  
Before the truthful mirror  
How rotten the fruit of love  
Had become with each bite
