Her Green Eyes

Her piercing green eyes
Often showed that she cries
She tries to be strong
But she feels like a pawn

Her life was a lie
Her father was the bad guy
Her brother is dead
Her mom is filled with dread

She feels so scared
It's a look her green eyes shared
She wanted to say she was fine
So people would say that she shines

Her boyfriend is a southsider
She is a northsider
He loves his fries
And her piercing green eyes

She wanted to cry but tears wouldn't go
She put a smile and hid her scars
She wanted to scream but words wouldn't flow
She was so damn scared
