Eyes

By atia

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Why show me a glimpse Of all that I can never have? Why make me fly so high And fall so fast? ..I don't think I can take it in.. So, Must I comprehend? Can I not wander off searching, screaming and shouting and crying? Tell me is it really true? Or what is true at all I'm sick of all the lying. Tell me you see it inside me That my crazy world is real Because the moment I step into yours I can't get myself to feel Don't tell me I'm clueless That I live on a pack of lies As for the world you live and breathe Look at it through my eyes...
