The Eyes That Dreamt

In a world enveloped in darkness
Where hopes are hard to find

Where people look inside themselves to see
All the things that pollute their mind
And pray in vain
For forgiveness

For purifying themselves
And their souls
To jusify their acts
Of greed and jealousy

She looked at me with eyes
That still shone with dreams

The dreams in those eyes
Promising hope for the hopeful
And trust for the thieves
The eyes that refuse to see
The world as it is

Believing and making me believe
Nothing is as bad as it seems

The eyes that shone with dreams...

  1. "In a world enveloped in darkness
    Where hopes are hard to find"

    Being an optimist, I may not get the true essence of this line....
    But this poem reminds me of SIMC
