Eyes

When you look into my eyes,

what do you see?

The debris from all the tragedy?

Thats only part of me.

Like a detainee,

I’m trapped inside.

Denied feelings of happiness,

only a slight will to survive.

I’m only here

because,

I plea

for sanity.

For my mind to not take over me

with negativity

to give me dignity

to fight another day.

Strength, not captivity

Ability, not anxiety .

I want to write words that need

to be heard, without them getting

blurred.

Let me transfer the good

for all that are misunderstood.

I want to RISE

Thats what I want you to see

when you look into my eyes.

Glue

I am a lost soul glued to an immobile shadow

Eye always closed

If I open them, its a horror I only know.

The sweet smell of roses

splashed with blood.

It’s enough to loose my fading wit.

I will never move on

It stays with me like

skin to bone.

Iconic Love Poem… Do you have one?

Wine comes in at the mouth, and loves comes in at the eyes; that’s all we shall know for truth before we die. I lift the glass to my mouth, I look at you, and I sigh.

W.B. Yeats
