Through Her Eyes

**Through Her Eyes is currently streaming on NoBudge**

I was born being looked at. 

I used to feel haunted by your eyes. Always following me, wherever I went.
Gazing at me like a spectacle on a petri dish.

One day the smells of Athena’s garden were suddenly overpowered by the stench of low tide. I became a limp body getting pushed and pulled by your unforgiving current. 

After that, my curls coiled from rage and I finally looked back.

Now I don’t mind you as much as I used to. 

I found my own stare and it’s unforgiving. It doesn’t understand or give the benefit of the doubt.

But no matter what I do, you’re still there. 

You think I don’t see you? I feel your gaze right now. Stop. Looking. At. Me.
