Story Of A Girl (From Her Eyes) Poem by Brian Hinckley

Eyes of fire
scorching my soul.
You look not at me,
but through me.

I mean nothing to you,
less than nothing.
My words ignored,
my cheek slapped.

You hit with disregard
of how I feel.
You scar my soul
equal to my body.

I try to leave
and break the cycle.
You laugh as I walk away,
knowing I cant live without.

Treacherous love,
you torment me so.
My heart belongs to him,
but my tears speak otherwise.

Please release your grasp
and let me leave.
'Never', you say,
as I fall on my knees

and cry,
