Blood Shot Eyes

Bloodshot Eyes

See how she sits in the onion field and cries,
People pass by unconcerned as to why;
In an onion field she sits and cries.

Has she lost someone? Maybe they’ve died,
Is that the reason? Only we can surmise why;
In an onion field she sits and cries.

What torments has she endured?
Fear and loneliness prominent in her eyes, why;
In an onion field she sits and cries.

No one is interested nothing is said,
About the voices in her head, or why;
In an onion field she sits and cries.
