Her Big Red Eyes Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Her Big Red Eyes

Rating: 5.0


Damaged vessels
It hurts to see
So many tears passing by
Like broken glass shards
Piercing through her soul
Opening big red wounds
Lakes of sorrow
Beneath her broken demeanor
Her big red eyes have seen pain
They cannot be comforted by the passing light
Nor be consoled by the warmth within the tears
Her eyes bleed in silence
No bandage can hold them
And no stitches can stop them
The windows of the her soul have been shattered
By the painful hand of domestic abuse

Very thought-provoking write. Beautiful expression to convey the pain and disgrace of domestic abuse suffered by many women around the world. A great social piece.
