got a better title? open to suggestions!
We can all see lies but we decide to close our eyes.
We can see the happiness in front of us, while still seeing the darkness inside.
One can point to the truth standing right in front of us, but we can pretend not to see.
At night we close our eyes and travel to a world no one knows.
There we can imagine a happy life, one that brings joy.
Because in our lives our eyes see everything even if we close them shut, they still move following the truth we hide from.
Our eyes do not live in the world we create for ourselves, they live in the world that they see.
The writing of what they see is written within the cornea, and the tears we shed are from pretending not to see.
