The eyes of a baby, tiny little stars

The eyes of Venus, Mercury, Mars



The eyes of a child, full of wonders

The hands of the child, full of blunders



The eyes of a teenager, angry it seems

Teenage years aren't so serine.



The eyes of an adult, trialed and true

The eyes seem so loyal, through and through



The eyes of an old man, right before death

The same eyes of that baby, with his very last breath.



Eyes are for love, not meant for hate

Eyes are to give, and not meant to take.

Eyes can see anything, deceiving can be

One thing they must see, and that would be thee.



Look at yourself through the eyes of a child

Your thoughts seem to be somewhat mild.

Simpler times were childhood years,

Simpler things, and simpler fears



Now take a look through the eyes grown up,

The view you see is very abrupt

Different view, but the eyes still the same

Look at yourself, stray pity, or shame.



Now take a look through the eyes of that man...

On his deathbed, take a PEEK if you can...

A ragged old man, run down eyes

The VERY SAME EYES, of the child, who cries



The eyes that tell you your something great, while all the others were just full of hate

When you look at yourself, and you think for a while

The eyes are telling the truth, no denial



View yourself who you are, not WHAT

Don't think of hate, but of nothing BUT



See what you see, but don't just PEEK

Look through them now, the eyes can SPEAK



What do the eyes want you to say?

They tell you to look through THEIR view, for a day



They tell you they have seen a great many things,

But most of all, your an angel, on wings.



If you look at the BAD, and look with disgust

If you look at the violence and look at the lust

If you look at the terrible things you have wrought,

Then your cheating your eyes, and what you have sought



If you look at the good, and admirable things

Then my friends, your angel will sprout it's wings

And all in a fluster of these precious eyes,

Are the old man who weeps, and the child who cries.
