behind the eyes

she is a mysterious creature of the night.

beautiful and radiant, she lurks in the shadows.

glaring at passersby, as she smiles on the inside.

for only she knows the truth, behind the eyes.

shy and awkward but glowing with confidence.

she speaks in a whisper, soft and subtle.

every movement is calculated and precise.

although she has no destination in mind.

moving and cringing as life passes by.

she lurks in the shadows and waits.

for the sun to break through and awaken her.
