Today

My eyes are burning, a fiery deep burn. I cant quite grasp what it feels like, but tears keep dropping without a residue of sadness. Each one empties out the moisture which in turn creates a deeper burning sensation at my cornea.

My eyes are bright red, like the fires of hell they burn. Each vein more obvious than its neighbor. The root beer brown color that surrounds my pupil looks lighter to detract from the eye sore this off-hue pink creates.

Im not sad today, but as my eyes drop tears from the sky I am aware that todays fiery, dry eyes are a sign of the tears I should've cried. But today is a good day and Im not looking back.
