In Your Eyes

In your eyes, there is someone who is broken; someone who is hurt; someone who is lost.

When I look into your eyes, I see trauma and hardships. I see depression and expectations that weren’t met.

When I look into your eyes, I see someone who is fighting; fighting emotion and trying not to fall once more.

But I also see a glint of hope. I see a little light. I see someone who, in the midst of their hurt and sadness, is desperately searching for happiness and brighter days. I see someone who, as much as they’d want to, wont let that hope go because then, there’d be nothing to live for.

Above all, when I look into your eyes, I see someone who is strong. I see a fighter. I see a survivor. I see greatness that’s yet to come.
